If you've been advised to restrict potassium intake because you have kidney disease or are on potassium-retaining medications, or you wish to increase intake to help lower high blood pressure or to replace potassium lost as a result of vomiting or diarrhea or using thiazide or loop diuretics, this app can help you.
Set your target daily potassium intake based on the information provided in the app derived from the USDA and US HHS Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025 or as advised by your healthcare provider. You can change this target at any time (see App Preview 1).
Record the foods & drinks and amounts you consume using the barcode scanner (if in the US where potassium content is required on the Nutrition Facts label), speech recognition, by favoriting foods, or using Search and using the serving sizes provided (see App Preview 2). The serving sizes are mainly those suggested by USDA Food Data Central, but can be changed at any time. Your progress towards your target daily intake will be shown on the dashboard in real-time.
You can also view your progress over time on the Month view dashboard, and export food diaries and potassium intake into a spreadsheet for your own information or to share with healthcare providers.
The app is curated and contains 325+ common (mainly healthy) foods and drinks and you can add your own branded and other foods and recipes at any time using the barcode scanner, voice recognition or the keyboard.
Apple's HealthKit functionality is integrated in the app's user interface so you can share data with Apple's Health app. You can also synchronize the app with all your Apple devices and First Line Medical Communications Ltd apps.
Also useful nutritional information via the Info tab (see App Preview 3).
The interface is intuitive to navigate, but you may find it useful to familiarise yourself with the full functionality of the app by touching the icons, words, and bars on every screen and swiping left and right on the Tracker screen.
The app does not require access to the Internet except when you use the barcode scanner for the first time for a food.
