Tracking your diet can be a bit of a pain, especially since people are confused about what makes a diet healthy. Are nuts healthy? Is meat healthy? Is brown rice better than white rice? Olive oil versus coconut oil? The list goes on. Don’t worry, we solved this problem for you.
Fntrackr is a new nutritional tracking web app designed to be the most accurate and comprehensive nutrition tracker available, allowing you to track not only the macronutrients (carbs, fats, and proteins), the micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) in your diet, and also the Diet Score.
Diet Score is a revolutionary diet rating system based on new science in obesity research and designed to make losing weight easy. Each food is rated on a scale of 0-100, with 0 being the most fattening and 100 being the least fattening.
Food quality is more important than food quantity. A recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition points out that a diet high in processed foods is linked to weight gain, diabetes, and heart disease. The study’s lead author, Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, said that “people who consume more processed foods are more likely to develop obesity and diabetes.”
Calories also matter but what matters more is whether those calories get stored as fat and wreak havoc on your metabolism or whether those calories get burned cleanly and are used to build muscle.
Fntrackr is not just for people trying to lose weight. You can also improve your health by using the app. Too much intake of polyunsaturated fats can cause massive inflammation in your body. Fntrackr tracks your fat intake and gives you a poor Diet Score if you’re eating too many polyunsaturated fats, which are mainly found in processed foods and seed oils.
Using Fntrackr is simple. Add the foods you eat to the web app and Fntrackr will give you a Diet Score for the day. The higher your Diet Score, the less fattening your diet is.
No matter which food tracking app you use, Fntrackr is the best way to monitor your health, energy intake, and diet quality. Visit Fntrackr.com today to create your free account and get started on your new health journey.
