Raise your hand if you added “eat healthier” or “eat greener” to your list of 2013 resolutions this week. (Two hands if you’ve just returned home from holiday travel — yikes.) We all know it’s not always easy to stick to those new goals, but here’s some delicious insight for you: downloading the app Fooducate can make them much more attainable.
Next time you’re out grocery shopping (or if you just want to see what’s already hiding out in your cupboard), use Fooducate to scan the bar code of a few of your favorite products. It not only gives you a breakdown of the nutritional label, but it will also give it a grade based on how healthy it is. Plus, with the app’s optional setting, you can even find out if a food contains any GMOs or genetically modified organisms.
With free versions available for iPhones and Androids, it’s a tastier way to start a healthier new year. (Now, if only we could get it to attend that extra spin class for us . . .) Find it at fooducate.com.
