Stop Potassium is the first App with which it is easily possible to define and control a diet low in potassium. Once installed, it does not require Internet connections.
It is an indispensable tool for those suffering from chronic renal failure, but also a useful support for anyone who wants to monitor the introduction of potassium through drinks and food.
Stop Potassium is a very easy to use App and is equipped with a large database obtained from the nut.entecra.it site for food (CREA - Research Center for Food and Nutrition) and from the sites www.altroconsumo.it and www. acquainbottiglia.fondazioneamga.org for mineral waters.
The database does not contain all the mineral waters marketed in Italy. To have your favorite water added, simply send photos of the label to the developer.
