Show HN: Famnom – Nutrition tracker and meal planner for families

Hi everyone, I’m the author of Famnom. I built it after trying various nutrition tracking apps but didn’t find anything that fit my needs.

What is it?

Famnom is an easy-to-use macro and micro-nutrient tracker, and meal planner. Choose from a database of foods or add your own, create recipes and log meals. Set custom nutrition goals or use FDA RDIs for macros - calories, fats, proteins, carbs and micro-nutrients - Magnesium, Calcium, Zinc, Iron, etc. Use MealPlanner to generate daily meal plans based on nutrition goals, available items and taste preferences.

Why?

My main goal was to eliminate nutritional supplements in my diet, and use fresh foods and recipes as much as possible. Famnom can help:

1. Track macro nutrients and micro nutrients, such as Vitamin D, Fiber, Magnesium, etc consumed per day. Connect with Apple Health for trends over longer periods of time.

2. Generate meal plans based on available foods and recipes in Kitchen, nutrition preferences and taste preferences.

3. Share kitchens with other family members.

Famnom has worked for me personally. I was able to eliminate almost all supplements from my diet. I hope it can help others with their health goals.
