Protein Counter and Tracker

Use this personal protein diary and calculator app to achieve your fitness and nutrition goals if you're at risk of protein deficiency because you're on a plant-based, dairy-free or weight-loss diet, if you're over 40 and wish to increase protein intake to prevent age-related muscle wasting (sarcopenia), or to support a LCHF, Dukan, keto, paleo, or Atkins diet. Supplements & high-protein processed foods are not the answer because they are associated with unhealthy higher-than-RDA protein levels and do not provide the thousands of polyphenols & other natural chemicals found in whole food that are needed for optimal health & to prevent disease. The effects of not eating enough protein include muscle wasting & weakness, osteoporosis, impaired growth & development, poor wound healing, susceptibility to infections & illnesses, depression & anxiety, brittle hair, dry skin, weak nails, feelings of hunger & a predisposition to being overweight or obese. Set your daily protein intake based on guidance provided in the app & your preferences for weights of food (g or oz) and display of protein content in foods & beverages (ie, g or %target/serving, g/100g or g/1oz, or %target/100g or %target/1oz). Record food & beverage consumption using the barcode scanner, dictation, search or by favoriting foods & using the serving sizes provided (which can be changed at any time). Tap the notepad to add notes. Monitor daily & long-term progress, export data to share with healthcare providers, synchronize data with other First Line Medical Communications Ltd nutrient counter apps, & share data with Apple's HealthKit. Add your own foods & recipes & change serving sizes to personalise the app's 400-item database for you. All food & beverage popups indicate whether the item is a plant, good prebiotic, probiotic or ultra-processed (UPF) to inform a healthy diet & whether they are high or low FODMAP per serving where data are available to support people with IBS. The app also provides nutritional information for many healthy foods & supports a healthy gut microbiome diet using color-coded type & icons.
