Description

One-off fee. Free updates. No ads/subscription/registration. Sync w FLMC apps. Share w. Apple Health. Color-coded high-magnesium, plant, prebiotic, probiotic, & UPF foods

Magnesium is key for bone formation and muscle (including heart), immune function as a key anti-inflammatory nutrient, and hundreds of metabolic reactions. Many people worldwide do not consume enough. Inadequate intake increases the risk of type 2 diabetes, ischemic heart disease, stroke, osteoporosis, migraine headache, chronic inflammatory diseases and infections.
Use this app to ensure you consume enough magnesium, especially if you are pregnant (to optimise the health of your child) or aging (to protect against frailty and infections and maintain strong bone and muscle).
Set your target daily magnesium intake based on guidance provided in the app and your preferences for weights of food (g or oz) and display of magnesium content in foods and beverages (ie, %target/serving, mg/100g or mg/1oz, or %target/100g or %target/1oz).
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.
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. 
The app provides nutritional information for many healthy foods and supports a healthy gut microbiome diet using color-coded type and icons as follows:
1. All high-magnesium foods (ie, contain more than 40mg of magnesium per serving) appear in purple type.
2. Plants that can be included as one of the 30 different types of plant per week recommended by experts for a healthy gut microbiome and contain less than 40mg of magnesium per serving are in green type (with a green leaf icon used to indicate a plant in the food popup). Those that are particularly good prebiotics are in dark green type.
3. Probiotics that contain less than 40mg of magnesium per serving are in gold type with a gold microbe icon in the food popup.
4. Foods that are likely to be ultra-processed (UPFs) and contain less than 40mg of magnesium per serving are in red type with a red warning triangle in the food popup.
5. Foods in black type contain less than 40mg of magnesium per serving and are neither UPF, plant, prebiotic nor probiotic and are healthy when consumed in moderation as part of a healthy diet.
