Store description excerpt
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. • Reads the barcode on a food package and then automatically searches the internet for the barcoded food item. • Uses a local USDA Nutrition database with over 8,700 food items. • Uses the internet to search the USDA Food Data Central database with over 336,600 food items updated continuously. Saves each search result to a local FDC database. • Saves USDA Food Data Central food items in a local database. • Can work offline using the local databases. Internet access for USDA database can be turned off. • Search directly from the opening page using words or the upc code from a food item. • Searches are fast, usually less than a second. • Nutrition values are now in the new USDA nutrition label format. • Display the brand owner, upc, or gtin code by setting check boxes in the settings. • Email your user database or a single food item to anyone and then download the database to any Android device. • Basic use is on one page.
