Our AI analyzes the nutritional profile of your food and assigns a health rating on a scale of 1-10. Here's how to interpret these scores:
Foods that are highly processed, high in added sugars, unhealthy fats, sodium, and low in essential nutrients. These foods should be limited in a healthy diet.
Examples: Fast food, candy, sugary sodas, processed meats, deep-fried foods
Foods with a mix of nutrients but may be higher in calories, fats, or carbohydrates. These can be part of a balanced diet in reasonable portions.
Examples: Lean meats, whole grain bread, pasta, cheese, yogurt with some sugar, trail mix
Nutrient-dense foods that are high in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and healthy fats. These foods form the foundation of a healthy diet and should be consumed regularly.
Examples: Fresh vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts, seeds, fatty fish, whole grains
| Rating Range | Category | What It Means | Example Foods |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-4 | Poor | Foods that are highly processed, high in added sugars, unhealthy fats, sodium, and low in essential nutrients. These foods should be limited in a healthy diet. | Fast food, candy, sugary sodas, processed meats, deep-fried foods |
| 5-7 | Moderate | Foods with a mix of nutrients but may be higher in calories, fats, or carbohydrates. These can be part of a balanced diet in reasonable portions. | Lean meats, whole grain bread, pasta, cheese, yogurt with some sugar, trail mix |
| 8-10 | Excellent | Nutrient-dense foods that are high in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and healthy fats. These foods form the foundation of a healthy diet and should be consumed regularly. | Fresh vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts, seeds, fatty fish, whole grains |
Note: Health ratings consider multiple factors including nutrient density, fiber content, protein quality, fat composition, and presence of added sugars or sodium. Individual dietary needs may vary based on health conditions, fitness goals, and personal requirements.

Our AI Food Calorie Counter uses advanced computer vision and machine learning to analyze food images. Simply upload a photo of your meal, and the AI will identify the food items, estimate portion sizes, and provide detailed nutritional information including calories, macronutrients, and health ratings.
The AI provides a reasonable estimate based on visual analysis, but results may vary depending on image quality, lighting, and food visibility. The tool provides a calorie range rather than a single number to account for this variability. For precise measurements, consider using traditional food scales and nutrition databases.
Our AI can recognize thousands of common food items and dishes from various cuisines. However, it may have difficulty with very obscure foods, homemade dishes with unusual ingredients, or foods that are not clearly visible in the image. The more visible and recognizable the food, the better the results.
For best results, take clear, well-lit photos that show all food items clearly. Try to capture the entire plate or meal from above. Including common objects like utensils or a plate can help the AI better estimate portion sizes.
Absolutely! The AI Food Calorie Counter is perfect for quickly logging meals without the hassle of manually searching databases or weighing food. While it provides estimates rather than exact measurements, it's an excellent tool for general nutrition awareness and tracking trends in your eating habits.
