This simple app can help you meet – and maintain – your target weight
Whatever you’re cooking, you can trust Nutracheck to help you monitor your calorie and nutrient intake
Looking to boost your health, re-energise and start good habits in 2023? Nutracheck is a trusted calorie and nutrient tracking app that enables you to monitor the food and drink you consume on your smartphone or tablet, which is an effective way to help you achieve a healthy weight – and stick to it.
The app also helps you keep an eye on seven key nutrients, so whether you want to ensure you’re not having too much salt in your diet or you’d like to up your fibre intake, you can trust the app to keep you informed about what you’re consuming. Be it sugar or saturated fat, Nutracheck can track both – and more – with its UK food database maintained by an expert team. What’s more, it takes less than10 minutes a day to log your food and drink intake.
Whether you’ve ever wondered how much sugar there is in a tomato, which kind of bread has the most fibre, or if pasta or rice has more carbohydrates, Nutracheck has the answers.
If you’re eating out, recent changes to restaurant menus have made it easier to keep an eye on the calories, but at home, it’s harder to quantify that extra sprinkle of mature cheddar on your lasagne or dollop of cream on a sticky toffee pudding. Or at least it was, before Nutracheck.
So, whether you’re aiming to lose weight, improve your diet or eat for fitness, why not give Nutracheck a try?

Read on to discover how Amber and Lee used the app to reach their goals, and how it can help you too…
Meet Amber
Nutracheck weight loss: 7st 7lbs
Amber had always struggled with comfort eating, but when the pandemic hit, reports claimed those with a higher BMI could be more susceptible to serious illness, so the 23-year-old early years worker decided to make some changes.
In 2021, she hired a personal trainer and took back control of her eating habits with help from Nutracheck. “Once I got into the swing of using the app, I found it so easy to use,” she says. “I like that it has pictures and a barcode scanner to make the process really straightforward.”
And it wasn’t long before Amber, who at her heaviest weighed 22st, noticed both physical and mental changes: “I’m so much happier now and much more confident. I’m doing things I wouldn’t have done three years ago. I enter fitness competitions, I run and I go to the gym six times a week… I feel good, I’m getting myself out there.”
So, what advice would she give to others who are thinking about trying Nutracheck? “Just go for it. It really will change your life.”
Meet Lee
Nutracheck weight loss: 2st 8lbs
Before using Nutracheck, Lee was a frequent gym-goer who maintained a steady weight. So, you can only imagine his shock when he suffered a heart attack, aged just 42.
“I always ate what I wanted because I was regularly at the gym, but when my heart attack stopped me exercising, my weight started increasing,” recalls the care worker, now 47. “I didn’t immediately change my diet. I saw a consultant who told me my cholesterol was on the rise again. I had two options: I could either take medication that’d give me gout or lose weight – I chose the second option!”
Lee downloaded Nutracheck in April 2022, and found it to be a game-changer that took him from 14st 10lbs down to 12st 2lbs. “It’s so easy to use,” he says. “Before making a meal, I get everything out on the counter, quickly scan the barcodes, go through the app, then get cooking. It takes minutes. I also really enjoy using the forum. There’s a great bunch of people on there and everybody’s really supportive.”
He’s developed a passion for walking too. “I walk three miles every day now, and I walk tall and proud, whereas before I’d be hunched over and hovering along.”
