With an overwhelming amount of food choice in our modern superstores, this can be a daunting task.


Here's a few food and nutrition tools that you can use to plan your meals and grocery lists before stepping foot into the danger zone and a few tools that can help you stick to the particular weight loss method you're using.

1. Do you have trouble choosing between two foods? Sometimes what we think would be healthier actually isn't. TwoFoods allows you to enter both foods and then compare the two based on calories and nutrition.

2. A few months ago we mentioned the site FoodFacts.com that allows you to analyze exactly what's in your food before you buy it. Now you can take FoodFacts with you on your iPhone with their new app.


3. Are you on a low carb diet such as The 17 Day Diet? Here's a great tool that allows you to see how different foods compare carb wise. This will make carb counting a lot easier.


4. If you're trying to figure out exactly what ratio of proteins, carbs, and fats you should be eating according to your weight loss method, then this calculator can help with planning your daily meals.


5. Do you love Weight Watcher's new Points Plus or Pro Points? Here's a handy points calculator that allows you to figure out the points of any food, based on its macro-nutrients.


There you have it, a few food and nutrition tools to make life a little easier. Hang in there and all the best on your journey to be healthier.
