My attempt at a food tracking app for the wfpb community (and beyond!)
Hello fellow wfbp enthusiasts,
I am working on nooch.app, a website/web app that celebrates eating a wide diversity of whole plant foods.
The core concept I have developed is as such:
- simply track the foods you eat eg. blueberries, oatmeal, flaxseeds, sweet potato, ...
- I want this to be really effort-less. simply type in the food or scroll through the 500+ item library of plant foods. no measurement unit, just the food.
- complete different challenges to keep you motivated eating as many plants as possible
- eat at least 1 item of each category: grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, vegetables, fruits
- eat wfpb (super)foods every day (eg. blueberries, walnuts, flaxseeds, nutritional yeast, ...)
- eat 30 different plants a week
- eat the rainbow: eat 5 plants in red, orange, yellow, green and purple in a week
I will be releasing the first version of nooch on September 1st. (Feel free to join the waitlist 😉)
Now my question is: where should I go from here? what would you like to use (and maybe even pay 3€ / 3￡ / 3$-ish for a monthly subscription with all the fun features?
A) a gamified way to learn intuitively which food is high in certain nutrients. after 1 year of nooch usage and someone asks “What do I have to eat to get enough magnesium?”, you could shout back immediately: 1/4 cup of pumpkin seeds, 1 cup of kidney beans and 6 stalks of kale etc. to reach my daily RDI
B) support for IBS, low FODMAP diet, gluten free, … a "stomach ache" button that helps find out which foods trigger your symptoms
C) What do you struggle with eating plant-based that this little food tracking app could make you life easier and plant-based eating more fun?
