À propos de l'application

Type 1 Diabetes Carb Counter

This application uses the USDA nutrition database and the USDA Food Data Central database as sources of carbohydrates and other nutrients. This app is primarily for Type 1 diabetics. It displays the carbohydrates for the amount you want to consume at a meal or snack time. The nutrients button shows other nutrients besides carbohydrates, including calories and total fat.

If you have a food item that is not in the USDA database, you can enter your own and save it to the user database. The minimum required data is serving size, carbohydrates per serving, and the amount you want. You can enter other nutrients as well on the Nutrients page.

If you have multiple items for a meal, or have a recipe, you can enter the ingredients to get the total carbohydrates. Save this to the user database with any name. The recipe ingredients are shown at the bottom of the screen and saved with the item you save.

Most items in the USDA database have weight and volume units as well as descriptions that are not units. A good example is Apples, raw, fuji, with skin which has two descriptions, 1 cup sliced and 1 large. If you select 1 cup sliced, the units will be cup so you can use a measuring cup, tablespoons, liters, etc. If you select 1 large, the units will be large. You could select 2 large for two apples or 1/2 large for half an apple.

For food items not in the databases, you will have to search the manufacturers web site or get it from a nutrition label. If you expect to use this food item again, save the food item to the user database.

A cooking database was extracted from the USDA database and put at the beginning of the search so that if you search for salt, you will find Salt, table near the top of the screen in the Cooking Database.

There is a miscellaneous database that includes food items and recipes that we have entered for our granddaughter. It does not have all the nutrients or show the recipe for all items.
