About Carbon - Macro Coach & Tracker
Carbon Diet Coach is a science-based nutrition app designed by renowned nutrition coaches Dr. Layne Norton (Ph.D. Nutritional Sciences) and Registered Dietitian Keith Kraker (BS Dietetics).
It does everything a normal nutrition coach would but at a fraction of the cost. Simply select your goal, answer a few short questions, and it does the rest! You will get a customized nutrition plan based on YOUR goals and metabolism.
What's more, Carbon will adjust the plan as you progress to optimize your results. If you hit a plateau or stall, Carbon will make adjustments to keep you progressing towards your goal, just like any good coach would. Our coaching system uses the latest techniques in nutrition science to make sure you get the best results possible.
All you need to do is follow these simple steps:
• Log your food using the built-in food tracker
• Log your body weight
• Check-in each week
Do that and Carbon does the rest!
Carbon Diet Coach can do things other nutrition coaching apps can’t do. For example, your nutrition plan can be tailored to your diet preference:
• Balanced
• Low Carb
• Low Fat
• Ketogenic
• Plant-Based
Each setting is completely customizable so that you receive a plan that is sustainable for YOU!
Another feature that makes Carbon unique is the diet planner. Want high and low-calorie days rather than eating the same foods every day? Use the diet planner to set up your week and stay on track. Overate on one day and not sure what to do with your nutrition plan for the rest of the week? Adjust the diet planner to account for what you overate and Carbon does the rest!
Other coaching features include:
• Adjustable check-in days
• Check-in explanations so you're never left wondering why the app did or didn’t make a change
• Check-in history so you can look back and see why the app made various adjustments
• Charts showing your weight, body fat, lean body mass, calorie intake, protein intake, carbohydrate intake, fat intake, and metabolic rate
• Early check-in feature for those who can’t always check in on their specified day
• Goal tracker so you can see the progress you’ve made and how close you are to your goal
• Recommendations after you reach a goal so you can plan for what's next and KEEP your results
Already know what you are doing with nutrition and don’t need Carbon to coach you? No problem, you can enter your nutrition targets and simply use the food tracker. Beyond the amazing coaching features of this app is a food tracker that's excellent in its own right. Its features include:
• A huge food database
• Barcode scanner
• Quick add macros
• Copy meals
• Favorite foods
• Create custom foods
• Create custom recipes
No matter what your goal is, Carbon Diet Coach is your solution.

I've tried a lot of apps and this one is my farther past very intuitive and easy to use. love the coach feature and the paid price is worth every penny. less of a complaint and more of a preference but I am plant-based and a different app I used tracked more of the micronutrient stuff which was nice. it would also be cool at some point if the nutrient portion showed your RDA in comparison to what you currently consume on certain things. Still 10/10 for this app

Love this app. The only annoying thing is when you have to sign in through Google it won't let you sometimes!!!
