Ratings and reviews

Straightforward way to track daily diversity of healthy food. I love that it's science-based and focused on what is good to eat instead of being restrictive about what I "can't eat". There are also lists and links to information about some of the choices in each category along with why they are good for you. Click on the little food icon at the left of each entry to see these.

This app is awesome for tracking nutrition. I often use it to figure out what I should eat for dinner based on what I still have left to check off. Without it I would often forget to eat fruit or take B12. I would really love it if you could add other categories like omega-3's, but considering it's made by volunteers, it's already super awesome. I show it to people in hopes they start their own health journey all the time.

This App works great. Most of the changes I have made to fit in the daily dozen have actually made me enjoy my food more. For instance, when I make pizza now I add in spinach to the tomato sauce to get greens, and this tastes great. For breakfast, I eat frozen berries (defrosted) with various combinations of apples, flax meal, walnuts, nut butters, and so on, and I really look forward to this now. I think a complete fod journal is still best, especially for obese people but this App is good.
