Description

Glyx is a user friendly database displaying nutrition details for approximately 1000 various foods, focusing on the glycemic index, which are essential for low carb diets. Glycemic values are displayed by individual food in the summaries as well as on the detailed page for each food type, which also indicates the glycemic index. The Glyx diet is similar with the Montignac und Logi methods, which also are part of the family of low calorie diets. This app also assists diabetics to configure an optimal diet.

A summary page enables a sorting order to display nutritional values, or alternatively vitamin or mineral contents, as desired. The app can thus be used to identify foods to counteract symptoms of deficiency in nutrition. To facilitate the search, the various foods are grouped into categories, with individual buttons for direct access. The search function works either for all foods or within each category. Upon selection of an individual food, the list shows the nutrition facts and facilitates the calculation of the various values with individual quantities, as entered on top of the page next to amount.

The supported nutrients are: Energy, protein, alcohol, water, carbohydrates, sugar, starch, fiber, fats (saturated, cholesterol, poly unsaturated, mono unsaturated), vitamins (A, carotene, B1, B2, B3, B5, B9, B12, D, E), sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, iodide, zinc.

Glyx is currently available in 4 languages, English, German, French and Italian and supports metric as well as imperial measurement units.

In the pipeline for future versions:
• Assembling various foods to piece together an entire meal.
• To save and share own menus with other users.
• Rate and ranking of menus
• Search for foods based on ingredients and nutritional values
• Calculation of nutritional data for entire meals.
• Direct comparison of foods

GuiltyBits is made up of two software developers and Glyx is the result of their efforts in their spare time. Our vision ist the creation of user friendly apps with high functionality. Your feedback will be very much appreciated and any help to improve Glyx is welcomed.

The database is provided by the Swiss Federal Food Safety and Veterinary Office http://www.naehrwertdaten.ch/request?xml=MessageData&xml=MetaData&xsl=Start&lan=en&pageKey=Start

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

2 ★Very nice interface: in addition to glycemic load, it also lists lots of other nutrition facts. Lacks most common foods, but it does sell an expansion pack. Definitely worth downloading if you're looking to buy something.
1 ★Bate and switch. To get the info that you need you have pay.
5 ★Has glycemic load and other nutrition facts.
1 ★Info was not available. That's the first thing I looked up. Seriously? Oats is a basic food. I'm uninstalling app because for me it's useless :(
1 ★If they don't have something as basic as sweet potatoes then I don't trust it.
3 ★Good app but poor database. Hope they improve it!
1 ★No data on food...everything I searched for was the paid upgrade
5 ★I use a lot the feature where i can compares food by diferents nutrients.
5 ★Usefull app for my sport diet
2 ★I have downloaded this app a number of times and each time found it to be less than helpful. Anytime I attempt a search for a good item I receive a: "data unavailable" - how can data be unavailable for something as simple as a "fig"? I don't know - I am guessing sereaching only works with the paid version then? Because any sereach I did came back with "data unavailable"
1 ★paid for upgrade room have more food options, didn't help no listing g for basic items that are high gloss like doughnut and spaghetti, waste of $1.99
2 ★Not good
