What’s New Version 3.2
• Improved Smart Meal creation speed.
• Bug fixes and performance enhancements.
Description
SCIENCE-based food scanner for gut microbiome & metabolic health. • SCAN food barcodes for simple quality scores & smarter options. • SCORE whole meals with a quick photo of your plate. • SWAP foods in meals & recipes with nutrient-balanced guidance. • SUSTAIN health impacts on your gut, energy, mood, & sleep.
Powered by NCS, a best-in-class scoring system developed by microbiome expert and UW Medicine gastroenterologist Dr. Chris Damman. It translates complex nutrition labels into simple 1–100 scores using key nutrient ratios—like carb-to-fiber—that signal balance and are linked to microbiome & metabolic health.
Designed to support the gut microbiome's activation of natural appetite-control hormones like GLP-1. Complements therapies like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound. Works with most eating styles: Mediterranean, Vegetarian, Low-Carb, Keto, Vegan, and Standard American.
