nutracheck

Nutracheck is a UK-based calorie counter and food diary app and website that has been helping people manage their weight and improve their nutrition since 2005. Developed by NutraTech Ltd, it provides users with a practical, evidence-based way to monitor their food intake and make healthier choices. The platform is designed to be accessible both on mobile devices and online, allowing users to track their eating habits anytime and anywhere.

The app tracks calories alongside seven key nutrients, including carbohydrates, sugar, fibre, protein, fat, saturated fat and sodium. By offering detailed insights into daily food intake, Nutracheck helps members understand the nutritional balance of their diet and supports long-term lifestyle changes rather than short-term restrictions. A key feature is its barcode scanning function, which simplifies logging meals and snacks, while integration with Fitbit and Apple HealthKit ensures that physical activity is also taken into account.

Behind Nutracheck is a team of nutritionists and healthcare professionals who ensure that its approach is aligned with current research in weight management and nutrition science. Among them are Dr Ian Campbell MBE, one of the UK’s leading experts in obesity and weight loss and medical advisor to Nutracheck, and Dr Janet Aylott, a nutrition scientist with industry and academic expertise. Their guidance helps maintain the scientific credibility of Nutracheck’s recommendations and resources.

Over the years, Nutracheck has earned recognition for its innovation and user experience, including awards such as the UK IT Industry Award for Mobile App of the Year and Health & Fitness App of the Year. With over 280,000 five-star ratings, it is now one of the most trusted calorie-counting platforms in the UK, offering users both professional support and a community-driven approach to healthier living.
