How Monthly Grocery List Generator Works
Step 1: Create Your Diet Plan First
Fill in your details through the diet plan form - your name, age, gender, height, weight, health goal (weight loss, muscle gain, diabetes, PCOS, pregnancy, viral recovery), food preferences, eating schedule, activity level, food restrictions, and what's currently in your kitchen. The AI builds your personalized 28-day diet plan based on all these inputs.
Step 2: Switch to Grocery List Tab
Once your diet plan is ready, navigate to the Diet Plan section using the bottom navigation. You'll see three clickable tabs: Diet Plan (your daily meals), Grocery List (shopping lists), and Supplements & Lifestyle (additional recommendations). Tap on the Grocery List tab to access the generator.
Step 3: Generate Your Shopping List
Click the generate button and get your complete grocery list. Choose between weekly list for fresh produce shopping or monthly list for bulk buying and meal prep. All items are calculated from your actual meal plan, including quantities based on portion sizes.
Step 4: Copy and Shop
Use the one-tap copy feature to grab your entire grocery list. Share it with family on WhatsApp, paste it in your notes app, or use it directly while shopping. Every item is there because it's part of your personalized diet plan. After 28 days, you can renew or modify your diet plan and generate fresh lists.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need to create a diet plan first to use grocery list generator?
A: Yes, the grocery list generator is a NutriScan Premium feature and requires an active 28-day diet plan. Your shopping list is built directly from the meals in your personalized plan, so it can't exist without the diet plan first. To get started, upgrade to Premium and fill in the diet plan form with your health goal (weight loss, muscle gain, diabetes, PCOS, pregnancy, or viral recovery), food preferences (vegan, vegetarian, eggitarian, non-veg), eating schedule, activity level, food restrictions, and current kitchen items. Once your AI-generated 28-day plan is ready, you can access the Grocery List tab to generate your shopping lists.
Q: What's the difference between weekly and monthly grocery lists?
A: Both lists come from your same diet plan but serve different shopping styles. The weekly grocery list is perfect for fresh produce like vegetables, fruits, dairy, eggs, and items that don't last long in your kitchen. The monthly grocery list is ideal for bulk shopping - grains, lentils, rice, oils, spices, dried foods, and non-perishable items that you'll use throughout the month. Many users combine both approaches: monthly shopping for staples and pantry items, plus weekly trips for fresh ingredients. This keeps your kitchen stocked without multiple unplanned trips to the store.
Q: Can I share my grocery list with family members?
A: Absolutely! NutriScan includes a one-tap copy feature that lets you copy your entire grocery list instantly. You can paste it in WhatsApp to share with your spouse, send it as a text message, save it in your notes app, or use any other method you prefer. This is perfect if someone else does the shopping for you, or if you want to coordinate with family members about what to pick up. The list is formatted cleanly with item names and quantities so it's easy to read and use at the store. No need to explain what each item is for - just share and shop.
Q: Does the grocery list include quantities or just item names?
A: Your grocery list includes both items and approximate quantities calculated from your diet plan. The amounts are based on the portion sizes in your meal plan and how many times each food appears throughout the week or month. For example, if your breakfast includes one banana every day, your weekly list will show 7 bananas. If you have chicken three times a week, the quantity reflects that. This helps you buy the right amount - not too much (causing waste and spending extra money) and not too little (running out mid-week and breaking your diet).
Q: What if I have food restrictions or allergies?
A: When you create your diet plan, there's a specific step where you specify any food restrictions or allergies. The AI takes this information and builds your meal plan avoiding those foods entirely. This means your grocery list also automatically excludes those restricted items - you don't need to manually check and remove anything. If you're lactose intolerant, dairy products won't appear in your list. If you avoid gluten, wheat products and related items won't be included. If you have a nut allergy, no nuts will show up. Your grocery list is as safe and personalized as your diet plan itself.
