We all know that there are foods that have a large amount of fats and sugars which must be eaten in moderation. Despite the fact that many of them display their nutritional information, it is not always clear, but with the app Nutrimental traffic light we will not have that problem again.
NUTRIMENTAL SEMAFORO ALLOWS US TO KNOW THE NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION OF A FOOD OR DRINK IN A SIMPLE WAY
To show us the nutritional information of food and drinks, the app makes use of the camera, with which we will have to point to the barcode of the food or drink for which we want to know the nutritional information.
If, for some reason, the food or drink that you are going to scan does not appear because it has not yet been entered into the application's database, all you have to do is press where it says "If it does not have a code, touch here”.
When pressed, a new screen will open that will tell us to look for the nutritional information on the back of the container as well as identify the serving size, that is, the grams of food or milliliters of drink that the container contains .
Next, we must complete the fields on the following screen, selecting whether it is a drink or food, writing the name of the product and adding the nutritional information that we have obtained from the back of the container.
Once this is done, and having clicked "Continue", the app will show us in the form of a traffic light (red, orange and green) the nutritional information of the product. First we will look at sugars, secondly saturated fats and thirdly the amount of sodium.
It will also show us if the consumption of said product is recommended, and if it is not, it will show us a series of alternatives similar to the food product to avoid.
