App Profile: Nutrition Info

This app is very helpful to me, a Type1/insulin-dependent diabetic who doses insulin based on the carbohydrate content of what I’m about to eat. With that in mind, it is imperative that I can readily measure or at least estimate the amount of carbs in my food. So when I use this app, I'm disappointed when I find a listing that gives the carbs per Serving but doesn’t give me a Volume of the serving, or at least the weight. Weight is harder to estimate, but Volume is easier, as in 1 cup, or 8 ounces, and so forth. It appears that nutrition info found on commercial products don’t always take such needs into consideration so I’d Love it if your app could add that info to help diabetic users like me. Overall, Thanks for your app, I use it frequently.

How many carb in a McDonald’s Big Mac? Simply enter “McDonald’s Big Mac” go! How about “Spaghetti “? Simply enter it and search. Nothing could be easier. When frequently updated, this app has become my greatest asset for diabetes control. It appears to be almost perfect in the simplicity of its operation. My only suggestion is to the food industry - portion size should alway contain weight info. To the app author-Fantastic job, brilliant! My only suggestion is provide a way within the app to provide feedback, and an app identification page so we can correctly identify the app when recommending it

this is perfect for designing meals and researching foods to hit nutritional targets, rather than just logging what you eat after the fact. I wonder about the completeness of the database behind it, but that said I can usually find what I’m looking for or a close match. Simple and easy to use, no social media garbage, forums, blogs, “communities,” etc. cluttering things up. An app that simply does what you ask it to do - look up nutritional data on food items. good job.
