Nutrientbook

Nutrientbook is a fantastic app for Mac users who want to keep track of their nutrient intake. Whether you're aiming to lose weight, build muscle, or just live healthier, knowing what you eat is super important. You know how annoying it can be to Google every little thing and end up with wrong info? Well, this app takes that hassle away!

Extensive Food Database

This app comes packed with an amazing food database that has over 14,000 food items! Seriously, it's hard not to find what you need. It covers everything from raw ingredients to cooked meals in various forms.

All the Nutritional Info You Need

You get tons of details about each food item. We're talking calories, protein, carbs, fats, vitamins, minerals—you name it! If it’s related to nutrition, it’s probably here. If you can't find something in this app's database, it may not even exist!

Easy Tracking and Calculation

Once you find the foods you want to track, just add them together. The right-hand panel shows the total nutritional value based on what you've selected. This makes keeping tabs on your diet super straightforward.

Personalized Nutrient Estimates

If you're unsure about how much of each nutrient you should be getting daily, no worries! The app can give you estimates based on general dietary guidelines after you share some personal info.

Filtering Options and Favorites

Now here's something I wish was better: filtering options. You can sort by types of nutrients but can’t choose which specific columns show up. For example, if you're only curious about total carbs but not about individual types of carbs—it would be great if we could make that happen! Also, while columns can be rearranged within a session, they don’t save when you log out.

The nutrient panel could definitely use some improvements too! It would be awesome if we had a way to filter down to the values we care most about since most users likely focus on just a few key nutrients.

Saving Your Favorite Meals

Another neat feature would be saving favorite food combinations—not just individual items! This would really help those of us who often stick with the same recipes or meals.

Overall, Nutrientbook is an incredibly handy tool with a reliable food database. With just a few tweaks—like better filtering options and saving meals as recipes—it could become even more user-friendly!
