Products that do what OpenNutrition – A free, public nutrition database does

Hi HN! Today I’m excited to launch OpenNutrition: a free, ODbL-licenced nutrition database of everyday generic, branded, and restaurant foods, a search engine that can browse the web to import new foods, and a companion app that bundles the database and search as a free macro tracking app. Consistently logging the foods you eat has been shown to support long-term health outcomes (1)(2), but doing so easily depends on having a large, accurate, and up-to-date nutrition database. Free, public databases are often out-of-date, hard to navigate, and missing critical coverage (like branded…

    Plain Text Nutritional Data Parser▲8

    https://github.com/galvez/contagrama Right now I've got a tagger UI and an API that correctly identifies foods you've tagged (from the USDA Food Nutrition Database) and processes gram-amounts from plain text to produce a combined nutritional chart.

If you're into nutrition, liked the project and would like to help, drop me a note.
