You don’t have to wait for summer or an upcoming vacation to start getting healthy and in shape. With the help of your smartphone, you can start focusing on proper eating habits using calorie logging apps and more! These top five diet and nutrition trackers will help you stay on track and meet your fitness goals fast.

 

KetoDiet

Keto diets consist of eating under 20 grams of carbohydrates, higher amounts of fats and moderate protein. Especially if you’re new to the keto lifestyle, the KetoDiet app will become a handy tool. It’s compatible with the Andriod and iOS and offers recipes, nutritional data, articles, and advice from experts. The app only uses crowd-sourced data for accurate information.

Fooducate

Fooducate helps you eat and shop healthy by pulling up nutritional information using the barcodes from food products. This feature allows you to have a better understanding of what the food labels mean. You’ll get a letter grade from A to D including healthier alternative suggestions. The app also doubles as an exercise and calorie tracker.

Shopwell

Shopping well is the first step to eating right. This app lets users create a personalized profile and set goals based on athletic training, heart disease prevention, and weight loss. This shopping assistant and barcode scanning app rates groceries according to your dietary needs.

Nutrients

The Nutrients app has a complete database of nutritional information for a variety of meals and ingredients. Any food you search for will have a breakdown of its important dietary content. Or, you can choose a particular nutrient like Potassium, or Vitamin B and find foods that contain abundant amounts of it. The Nutrients app is also compatible with the Apple Watch.

Lifesum

Instead of worrying about tracking every calorie you consume, Lifesum helps you create a healthy lifestyle by offering customized weight loss plans. They even provide expert tips on how to maintain lean body weight and gain muscle mass. The app lets you choose the right fitness plan for you, and record your food and water intake manually or with the barcode scanner. You will receive feedback from certified trainers based on our fitness goals. A Lifesum subscription offers users more in-depth eating plans and in-app integration with other smart devices and fitness trackers.
