I downloaded this to go with the app, and I started experiencing the issues a few on the main app reviews had stated (items disappearing, app freezing, etc). Mostly wanted to put this here in case it was helpful to the developer. I just downloaded the app and I'm already in love with it. Nice, simple, and purchasing the extra features doesn't require a monthly sub. Keep up the good work!

Brilliantly successful 5:2 diet strategy -Has upper (5:), lower (:2) limit lines and 30 day averaging (orange) line -Allows making a boosted weight graph (as added Nutrient) for tracking weight loss to a goal (True - Goal) graph -Weight minus Goal gives large changes in graph bars -It turns out there is a FOUR DAY LAG between eating and weight gain (or loss) -My (5:) is 1500 Calories, my (:2) is 600 Cal my average 1260 Cal and LOSS is ½ kg a week -☆- Use NO sugar, flour product or white starch

It's helpful for basic foods like rice and fruit but most branded foods on the database are American.

Fantastic Martin, thank you for adding this. My only suggestion would be to make it more obvious that it exists. I could have used this so long ago but I just now realized that it exists!

My main app does not seem to recognize its presence. EDIT after reply from the developer: The search button does invoke the plug-in. Upgraded to three stars to reflect my neutral opinion (so far) on the usefulness of the data itself. I installed the main app and the plug-in at the same time, and I just assumed the search button was a generic search of my entered data (which, in retrospect, would be duplicative, given the behavior of the name field). The use of a generic search icon made the plug-in TOO unobtrusive, and it was not obvious to me that the two were connected, though it makes sense after you point it out. Perhaps I failed to RTFM somewhere along the way. :) I have not tested the content of the plug-in to determine its usefulness for my situation.
