KCal - Calorie Counter application for mobile phones.
Add calorie and other nutrition information for your favourite foods to your Favourites hamper.
Search the `Hamper` of food for a particular item and change the size of the portion, in either metric or imperial, to fit what you have eaten. At the end of the day see how many calories you have consumed and compare to your daily recommended allowance.
Particularly suited to people who are dieting or simply interested in the nutritional content of the food they are eating, calorie counter offers a portable alternative to diet manuals and calorie websites.
The Calorie Counter is designed to assist a healthy lifestyle in which calorie intake is only one of the considerations. Regular excercise and an appropriate amount and type of food is important. This is different for all people and is dependant on many factors including lifestyle, energy needs, physical and medical condition. If in doubt please seek medical advice before starting a diet.
Versions
Two versions of KCal are available. KCal contains a preloaded mini hamper of over hundred common foods and a licence to download and use a US standard database of over 7500 foods. KCalLite is a cheaper version of KCal, with the same features but without any preloaded hampers. Both KCal and KCalLite allow you to create and save your own favourite foods. It is possible to upgrade KCalLite to KCal by purchasing additional hampers.
