Does NutriScan help people with diabetes track carbs? ​

Yes. NutriScan shows carbs and net carbs for every meal and lets you log blood sugar readings next to those meals, for your own tracking.

How it works in the app ​

  1. Scan, type or speak a meal. The Nutrition Details page lists Calories, Protein, Carbs and Fat.
  2. Under those, a second row shows Fiber and Net Carbs. German users also see BE.
  3. To keep net carbs in view all day, open Profile > Customize Home and pin Net Carbs (or Sugar) to Today's Count. You can pin up to 6.
  4. If you want blood sugar beside the meal, open Home > Report > Glucose and tap Log. See Can I log blood sugar next to my meals.

If a portion looks off, tap the portion pill on the meal and change the amount. The carbs update as you change it.

Limits ​

  • NutriScan does not diagnose anything and does not replace your doctor or your meter. The Glucose page says: "For your own tracking. Not a medical device or medical advice. Talk to your doctor about your targets."
  • Readings from a continuous glucose monitor app (more than 24 readings a day) are not imported.
  • Please talk to your doctor before you change your treatment.
