Nutritiondata is awesome


I haven't visited nutritiondata.com in ages to my loss or rather (weight) gain. It's really fantastic now. Just clicking around on it I've found these new features which are really useful:

1. My Tracking - which allows me to add up the day's foods and analyse its content
2. My Foods - which saves a catalog of my choice of foods (and they have an exhaustive fully-searchable database)


3. Custom food entries - where I can key in the breakdown of a food item/dish which is not on their database, and then save it as one of 'My Foods' (So, using the Asian Food Database on nutritiondata.sg I can build my own catalog - like in Bak Kut Teh above.)


I've also noticed that they have added in information on glycemic index and inflammatory index on top of their classic nutritious and filling scores. Who ever knew that bananas were pro-inflammatory?

Truly amazing.
