Learn how to read and interpret the data saved in the Luminatens app to identify patterns and make smarter nutritional choices.
Why History is a Powerful Tool
Every time you scan a product or manually enter its nutritional data, Luminatens automatically saves the result in the History section. This feature isn’t just about “remembering what you’ve scanned” — it’s a powerful resource that helps you:
- Track your food choices over time
- Spot recurring nutritional habits
- Evaluate whether your diet is improving
- Identify nutrients you might be over- or under-consuming
How to Access Your History
- Open the Luminatens app.
- Tap on the “History” icon in the bottom menu.
- You’ll see a chronological list of all the scanned or logged foods, each showing its name, category, and final score (0–100).
You can filter the list by date, category, diet type, or use the search bar for specific keywords.
How to Read the Saved Data
Each scanned item includes:
- Final Score (color-coded from 0 to 100)
- Nutrient Breakdown, with visual indicators for each nutrient:
🔴 Limit, 🟡 Moderate, 🟢 Optimal - Custom Notes, if you added any during manual entry
- Diet Type selected at the time of the scan
Tap any item to view all the details.
How to Use History to Improve Your Diet
1. Spot recurring weaknesses
Are you scanning lots of items high in sugar or salt (🔴 Limit)? You may be relying too much on processed snacks or ready meals.
➡️ Goal: Reduce frequency and look for healthier alternatives.
2. Identify your nutritional allies
Which foods scored above 80? These are top performers worth including more often.
➡️ Goal: Build a personal go-to list of high-scoring items.
3. Track weekly or monthly trends
Count how many items you consumed that fall into the Optimal, Moderate, and Limit zones.
➡️ Goal: Increase your ratio of green (Optimal) foods over time.
4. Balance dietary missteps
Did you overindulge one day? Use History to check whether your next few meals helped offset that.
➡️ Goal: Practice flexible balance instead of guilt.
