When nutritionists and dieticians begin planning menu and meal plans for clients the first place they start is with the calorie content of foods and how many ‘calories in’ are planned.
There are many calorie counters out there and many are available online. The USDA publishes calorie contents within its food nutrient database. You can access that directly for free and with the assistance of a spreadsheet, and enough time, build a very strong meal plan. For those professionals, and now individuals, who want to use an integrated calorie counting tool that combines the information power of the USDA database with the ease of online use, turn to a Vita-Bot powered menu planner.
In the previous century, as technology was crawling in its infancy, many people used an electronic calorie counter. Before that, a paper calorie counting chart. You can imagine how limiting that was. Only the most common foods could be listed due to space.
Now modern internet tools like Vita-Bot powered sites can even build in a restaurant calorie counter, with information from your favorite restaurant. Say you wanted a Starbucks calorie count. . .just collect the information and enter it once into your private account and its there forever for your use.
You want a fast food calorie counter, no problem. Just pick the meal and enter it once. The information is there to use over and over again. That’s one of the benefits of an online calorie counter.
Calorie counting has been around since before the first calorie counter chart. But advances in technology have made even free calorie counters as powerful as the old pocket calorie counter. When you find a free online calorie counter make sure it is tied into the USDA food nutrient database. If it’s not it may not be worth your time since most premium services, like Vita-Bot, cost less than 33 cents a day. With that kind of power a free calorie counter may actually cost you money, so beware. When a calorie counts, use the most accurate tool out there.
When you are looking for the number of calories in food, sometimes called “food calorie count,” a food calorie counter that uses the USDA food nutrient database is essential.
