Canada’s ONLY nutrition app that identifies both total and free sugar* amounts for packaged foods. Scan barcodes or search the database and see the free sugar hiding in your food. Can’t find what you’re looking for? Submit new products and help us grow the database that gives you the information you’re not getting from the Nutrition Facts table.

* What is free sugar? *
Think of added sugar, but with all the other stuff you didn’t know you were supposed to be worried about: juices, concentrates, honey and all syrups. The stuff that’s now in 74% of our packaged foods.

The truth is, we’re not supposed to eat more than 12 teaspoons of free sugar a day, and capping it off at 6 teaspoons is even healthier. It’s what the World Health Organization and the Heart & Stroke Foundation say, and it’s what we’re saying, too.

Pros and cons of OneSweetApp app for iPhone and iPad

OneSweetApp app good for

Finally!! Someones telling me how much added sugar is in my food! Its easy to use, beautiful to look at, and gives me the sugar count in teaspoons, which is SO helpful. Im a huge fan of Jamie Olivers and he thinks sugar should be measured in teaspoons on our nutrition labels, just like this app does. I can visualize how much sugar Im eating and know when Ive gone over a healthy limit. Highly recommended!!!

From product info and scanning, to tracking your personal sugar intake, this app covers a lot of ground. And it looks good doing it!

Some bad moments

Why are you doing this in teaspoons when our packaging is all in grams? Stupid and annoying conversion. Just tell me how much sugar is in each thing I put in, in grams! I like how I can recognize the products though.

Good idea in theory but app is a real time waster if you are trying to find a product - too many items have been entered multiple times under similar names. For example, look at "eggs".
