Nutrition apps make it easier than ever to eat wisely. Perhaps you'd like help organizing food inventories and shopping, coming up with meal plans and finding recipes. You might be interested in an app that tracks your food consumption in light of established goals. Want a coach to advise and encourage you or a better way to communicate with your healthcare providers? There are apps for all that.

To get rid of the clutter of meal ideas, recipes and grocery lists stuck on his family's refrigerator, Henrik Nielson decided to create an app that could serve the same purpose -- and do it much better.

With the app he developed, Food Planner, users can import recipes from the Web or create them manually, then generates shopping lists and meal plans. The app's goal, ultimately, is to make it easier and more convenient for people to make healthy meals at home.

"By using Food Planner to manage and organize your household, you will have access to millions of healthy food options, diets and recipes," Dave Buote, CEO of Food Planner's parent company, MiniMobile Software, told TechNewsWorld.
