About this app

The Food Inspector reveals all nutritional values. From now on you know what you're really eating.

Simple - quick - easy to use

Find out what your food really contains. The Food Inspector shows around 140 nutritional values (alcohol, cholesterol, protein, fat, fructose, lactose, uric acid, calories, minerals, micronutrients, vitamins, etc.) of over 17,000 foods. All values are taken from the German Food Database (Bundeslebensmittelschlüssel) published by the Max Rubner Institute and are being updated on a regular basis.

How it works:

- On your home screen at the top right corner click the settings icon and select those nutritional values you are interested in and would like to be shown (e.g. vitamins, minerals, carbonhydrates, etc.) - by default, all 140 values are activated.

- Select a nutritional group / nutrition from the list (eg. pasta, salad vegetables, potatoes, hard cheese).

- Receive the average nutritional value of a middle-seized portion of the selected nutritional group.

- If necessary, change the quantity of the respective food(eg. to 50 or 200g).

Click on the flag icon and you can switch the app's language between English and German.
Click on the star icon and evaluate the app on PlayStore.

What additional value does the PRO-version offer?

- Have a detailled look into the nutritional groups: Do not just get average nutritional values of the respective group, but the exact nutritional values of a specific food (e.g. egg noodles cooked, cauliflower steamed, potatoes cooked, Gouda min. 45% fat (dry matter)).

- Click on the search icon in order to use the simple search, filter and sorting function:
Search for your desired nutrition / food via text search, filter all food for upto 3 nutritional values (e.g. < 200 kcal AND < 30 mg cholesterol AND < 10 g carbonhydrates) or sort the food by nutritional value in an ascending / descending order (e.g. ascending vitamin B12-cobalamin).

- Use the app without annoying advertisement.
