EnglishWhat Is Nutritionix?
Updated
Nutritionix is a verified nutrition database and data platform operated by Syndigo LLC. It supplies nutrition data to apps, restaurants, and businesses through four main offerings: a Nutrition API, bulk database licensing, a restaurant platform, and a consumer tracking app. As of the site's current notice, the full Nutritionix website is temporarily offline during a major upgrade, but the database and API remain available to registered partners.
What Nutritionix provides
| Service | What it does | Who it's for |
|---|---|---|
| Nutrition API | Handles nutrition queries at scale; the site states 20k+ health apps make 250m+ queries per month | Developers building health, fitness, or food apps |
| Bulk Database Licensing | Monthly export of the entire database in CSV format for import into a local database; now serving over 1m+ foods | Companies that want nutrition data in their own systems |
| Restaurant Platform | Manages and publishes nutrition data; used by 25,000 restaurant locations | Restaurant chains and food service operators |
| Track App | Lets consumers browse complete nutrition information and data on products and foods | Individual users checking nutrition info |
Current website status
The homepage notice states the full website is temporarily offline while upgrades are rolled out. Two things follow from that:
- The verified nutrition database and API are still accessible, but only to registered partners.
- If you came to the site just to look up nutrition facts for a food or product, the notice directs you to the Nutritionix Track app instead.
If you're having trouble with the Track app, the site's stated first step is to log out and back in.
How to decide if it fits your need
- You're a developer who needs to embed nutrition lookup into an app: the Nutrition API is the relevant service, and access runs through registered partnership.
- You need the data locally rather than via API calls: bulk licensing delivers a monthly CSV export of the full database.
- You run a restaurant and need to manage and publish nutrition data: the restaurant platform is built for that, with 25,000 locations cited as users.
- You just want to check a food's nutrition facts: use the Track app, since the main website is offline.
What the page does not say
The notice does not list pricing, plan tiers, or whether any of these services are free. It also doesn't state registration requirements beyond "registered partners" for database and API access. For those details, you'd need to go through the contact or learn-more paths once the full site is back online.
