Cooking from scratch is much healthier andtastier than eating ready meals, processed foods and takeouts. Butmost people are not aware of how many calories are in what theyeat. In the supermarket, if we want to see how many calories orcarbs are in a particular food or meal, we look at the label on thepackaging. But when we cook at home we don’t get a label with thenutritional information on it for the whole dish. So how do we knowwhat’s in there? Cook & Count calculates that nutri info forus, for any dish we want to prepare. And it gives us the amountsper serving too. None of that fiddly maths any more.Cook & Count is a beautifully designed, easy and fun to useapp for creating and storing recipes in your own digital recipebook. It really helps with calorie awareness.Recommended by dietitians and nutritionists; and specialistdiabetes dietitians, nurses and educators.Approved by the UK National Health Service (NHS) and listed inthe NHS Health Apps Library.User reviews• “I had no idea how many calories were in what I was cooking –now I’m eating smaller portions of the high calorie things and I’vealready started losing weight.
