If you're on a milk-free diet or you're pregnant or breastfeeding, you might become calcium deficient. Calcium is essential for strong bones, muscles, heart, teeth, skin, hair, and nails. Deficiency results in weakened bones and teeth prone to fracture (a break), weakened muscles with muscle cramps and spasms, dry skin, and brittle hair and nails. This app can help you avoid calcium deficiency. It will set your default daily calcium target as the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) provided in the US Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025, which depends on your age and sex (see App preview 1). You can change this target at any time.
Record the foods & drinks and amounts you consume using the barcode scanner (if in the US or Canada where calcium content is required on the Nutrition Facts label), dictation, 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 calcium intake into a spreadsheet for your own information or to share with healthcare providers.
You can synchronize the app with all your Apple devices and other First Line Medical Communications Ltd nutrient counter apps.
Apple's HealthKit functionality is integrated in the app's user interface so you can share data with Apple's Health app.
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.
Also useful nutritional information via the Info tab(see App preview 3).
The interface is quick and 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).
