It All Comes Down to Ingredients.

At Nutriely, we believe that understanding what you eat is essential for making informed decisions about your health. But what if the nutritional information on food labels doesn’t tell the whole story? That’s where Nutriely comes in. But first, let’s take a step back …

Every recipe you create at home is made up of specific ingredients. The same goes for industrially produced foods. Ingredients are the building blocks of every food item, and for many of them (let’s call them base foods), we already have comprehensive nutritional data.

Yet, when you look at the label of packaged foods, you often see only a handful of data points. Most labels lack information about minerals, vitamins, amino acids, and other essential nutrients.

Here’s the good news: Nutriely’s algorithm can help you fill in the gaps.

How Does it Work?

Packaged foods often list their ingredients in descending order of weight, along with a limited nutritional breakdown. Using this information, Nutriely’s optimization algorithm estimates the probable proportions of each ingredient and calculates the complete nutritional profile.

This means that even if the food manufacturer doesn’t disclose all the details, you can still gain a deeper understanding of what you’re eating.

We believe this is the future of nutrition tracking. While food companies may not be required to calculate full nutritional data for their products anytime soon, Nutriely empowers you to take matters into your own hands. Imagine having access to not just the macros, but the full picture—vitamins, minerals, and all.

How to Use Nutriely’s Ingredient Estimation Feature?

Using this feature is simple and seamless:

1. Snap a Picture of the Ingredients List

   Open the Nutriely app and take a picture of the ingredients list on the food packaging. Our app uses intelligent ingredient mapping to match each listed item with entries in our database.

2. Validate the Ingredient Mapping

   Once mapped, review and verify the ingredients. This step ensures accuracy before moving forward.

3. Scan the Nutrition Label

   Next, take a picture of the nutrition label on the packaging. The app will extract the provided nutritional values.

4. Run the Optimization Algorithm

   Finally, let our optimization algorithm work its magic! Based on the provided data, the app estimates the proportions of each ingredient and calculates the full nutritional profile of the product.

5. View the Results

   Voilà! You now have access to a detailed breakdown of the food’s nutrition, far beyond what’s printed on the label.

Why should you care?

Think about it—every day, you make decisions about what to eat. Whether you’re a health-conscious individual, an athlete, or someone managing a specific diet, understanding what’s in your food is essential. But the reality is, food labels only scratch the surface.

Have you ever wondered:

• What exactly is in that protein bar you eat after workouts?
• Is that “healthy” snack as nutritious as it claims to be?
• What about those hidden micronutrients you’re missing by relying solely on macros?

The food industry won’t change overnight. Manufacturers aren’t obligated to provide full nutritional transparency, and many are unlikely to take that step unless required by law. But why wait? Why should your health and well-being depend on someone else’s decisions?

In a world where food transparency is limited, Nutriely has taken the initiative to put knowledge and power back in your hands. This feature isn’t just about data; it’s about empowerment. When you know exactly what you’re eating, you’re not just tracking food—you’re taking control of your health, your goals, and your future.

Food is one of the most personal choices you make daily. With Nutriely, you’re no longer guessing. You’re informed. You’re in control.
