pheLena helps people with Phenylketonurie (PKU) manage their daily phenylalanine (PHE) intake easily, accurately, and safely.
Instead of complicated calculations or generic nutrition trackers, pheLena provides the features that people with PKU and their families actually need every day: a PHE diary, barcode scanner, blood level tracking, recipes, and a curated PKU database.
FUNCTIONS
• PHE Diary: Search foods, enter quantities, and automatically calculate PHE values against your daily limit — including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.
• Blood Level Tracking: Record blood PHE values, follow them in charts, and monitor target ranges.
• PHE Calculator: Quickly calculate individual products — ideal while shopping or eating at restaurants.
• Barcode Scanner: Scan EAN barcodes and instantly import products from the database or link new products.
• Recipes: Save your own recipes and automatically calculate PHE values per serving.
• Offline Mode: Entries work without internet access and automatically sync later.
PKU DATABASE
More than 2,500 products with PHE, calorie, and nutritional values, including many specialized PKU products.
