Why Nuutrino exists
I built Nuutrino because no other app met my needs.
I've spent years managing ulcerative colitis and the GI problems that travel with it — along with weight that moved in both directions while I worked out what my body actually tolerated. Tracking food was never a hobby for me. It was how my care team and I found patterns worth acting on.
So I tried the apps. Every one of them was some combination of too complicated, too vague, or too slow — twenty taps and a database search to log a sandwich. I'd last a week, maybe two.
But the thing that really broke them was smaller and stranger. When my dietitian asked what I'd been eating, what I had was a mess — screenshots from one app, notes in my phone from another, a few photos I'd never logged anywhere. Every appointment started with me spending an hour stitching that together into an email. There was no clean, central way to generate one report and just send it.
Nuutrino is the app I wanted then. Photograph the plate, get on with your day — and when someone on your care team asks, hand them a real report. Free, because charging for your own data back is the part that made me give up.
