Description:

Shop Healthy is the most comprehensive healthy grocery guide available. For the first time you can make healthy food choices while you shop for groceries. This app provides expert nutritional advice from Dr. Melina Jampolis, a medical doctor board certified in nutrition. Now you can have a nutritional doctor grocery guide in your pocket or handbag. Dr. Melina Jampolis worked with a team of dietitians to rank and/or review over 100,000 branded grocery store products. Each product is ranked within each product category based on nutritional and optimal dietary considerations. The ranking takes into consideration varying nutritional aspects of individual products including sodium, saturated fat, total fat, sugar and fiber and compares that product to other products within the same food category to help you make the best choices.

Although there was consideration given to how products rank across categories, THIS GUIDE IS BEST USED TO COMPARE GROCERY PRODUCTS WITHIN THEIR OWN CATEGORY. FOR EXAMPLE, IT'S RANKING IS BEST WHEN COMPARING A YOGURT TO A YOGURT OR A BREAD TO BREAD, NOT A BREAD TO A CEREAL.

Other Features Include:
• Over 100,000 branded products included – all with nutritional information
• Over 100 factoids mapped to key product categories and all products
• Also includes how to shop for specific fruits and vegetables
• Allows you to save your favorites and email them, a time-saving way to keep a list of healthy foods
• New products added monthly

Please note: Because of the large database, this does require Internet access, meaning through WiFi or 3G. This product has U.S. branded grocery store products. It may not be suitable for grocery store products outside of North America.
