KCal - Calorie Counter application for mobile phones
Create your own on-the-go database of calories and nutrition information for a variety of everyday food and drink. KCal comes pre-installed with a mini hamper containing over 100 of our favourite every day foods, such as cereal, bread, vegetables, fruit and meat.
Our US Standard hamper containing over 7500 foods is also available for free download and use.
Search the ''Hamper'' of food for a particular item, or add your own nutrition information to the database. Select your favourites from the list 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.
Features

Multiple Hampers: KCal can contain one or more hampers. Additional hampers may also be available for download or separate installation. Eg. the US Hamper contains over 7500 foods (from USDA). You can choose which hamper to search through, copy foods to your Favourites hamper adjusting portion size and details if required.
Search Hamper: You can search for specific text allowing partial word search or full word search. The matching foods are presented as a filtered list, split into multiple pages if there are many foods found.
Food Data: Each food item has data defined for Calories, fat, protein, carbohydrate and fibre content for a given portion size in grams or ounces. Foods can be easily added to the totals for the day or saved to the Favourites hamper.
The following changes can be made
Portion Size
The portion size can be easily changed using the on screen gauge. A [Change Portion] option is also available which permits values to the nearest gram and can be used to convert grams to ounces, or ounces to grams.
