Use this personal calculator and protein diary app to achieve a healthy protein intake, especially if you're at risk of protein deficiency because you're on a plant-based, dairy-free or weight-loss diet or you're over 40 to prevent age-related muscle wasting (sarcopenia). Not eating enough protein can lead to 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. The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) 2025–2030 recommend a daily protein serving of 1.2–1.6g per kg body weight. Supplements & high-protein processed foods are not the answer because they do not provide the thousands of polyphenols & other natural chemicals found in whole food needed for optimal health & to prevent disease. Set your daily target protein intake based on guidance provided in the app & your preferences for weights of food (g or oz). 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. Compare the protein content of different foods by tapping the Compare button on the "Foods" screen. 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 irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Useful lists show protein 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.
