If you're vegan or vegetarian, pregnant or breastfeeding use this app to avoid the effects of zinc deficiency. Zinc is critical for a healthy immune system, wound healing, cell division, growth, and metabolism, and protects against many diseases including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, arthritis, skin diseases, dementia and Parkinson's disease. Zinc deficiency in pregnancy and childhood impairs growth and development. Deficiency in older adults can impair wound healing and brain and mental health. Set your target daily zinc intake based on guidance provided in the app and your preferences for weights of food (g or oz). Record food and beverage consumption using dictation, search, or by favoriting foods, and using the serving sizes provided, which can be changed at any time. Tap the notepad to add notes. Compare the zinc content of different foods by tapping the Compare button on the "Foods" screen. Monitor daily and long-term progress, export data to share with healthcare providers, synchronize data with other First Line Medical Communications Ltd nutrient counter apps, and share data with Apple's HealthKit. Add your own foods and recipes and change serving sizes to personalize the app's 400-item database for you. All food and beverage popups indicate whether the item is a plant, good prebiotic, probiotic or ultra-processed food (UPF) to inform a healthy diet and whether they are high or low FODMAP per serving where data are available to support people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Useful lists show zinc content of foods per 1oz or 100g and serving, which can be toggled from high to low & low to high. Also useful UPF, unprocessed plant, prebiotic, probiotic, high & low FODMAP food lists.

The sun is nature's best source of energy. But how much sun do you need to get enough Vitamin D, and when is it actually strong enough? Vitamind takes the guesswork out of it. We help you find the perfect time window to get your daily dose of sun – safely, naturally, and personalized for you. How it works: The sun needs to be at a certain angle above the horizon for your skin to produce Vitamin D. By combining your location, real-time weather data (including UV index and cloud cover), and your skin type, the app calculates exactly when you should head outside. Key Features: Smart alerts: Get a push notification the moment the sun is strong enough (when the "Vitamin D window" opens). Personalized: Calculates the time you need based on your specific skin type (I-VI). Practical estimates: See how many minutes you need outdoors, whether you're wearing "T-shirt and shorts" or just exposing your face and hands. Visual dashboard: Track the sun's path and plan your day with our simple, easy-to-read Vitamin D graph. Disclaimer: This app provides general estimates based on algorithms and weather data, and is not intended as medical advice. Everyone's skin reacts differently. Use at your own risk and always avoid sunburn.
