Saturated Fat Counter Tracker 12+

Use this app to lower saturated fat intake to lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and risk of angina, heart attack, peripheral vascular disease, stroke and dementia.
Eating too much saturated fat, which is high in calories, providing 9 calories/gram, is also a cause of obesity, and obesity-related diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, some cancers, and inflammatory diseases.
Set your daily saturated fat intake based on guidance provided in the app and your preferences for weights of food (g or oz) and display of saturated fat content in foods and beverages (ie, %target/serving, g/100g or g/1oz, or %target/100g or %target/1oz).
Record food and beverage consumption using the barcode scanner, 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.
The app supports a healthy gut microbiome diet for optimal health and prevention of many diseases using color-coded type and icons as follows:
1. Plants are highlighted in green type and with a green leaf icon in the food popups to help users consume the 30 different types of plants per week recommended by experts for a healthy gut microbiome. Plants containing fiber are beneficial for the gut microbiome (ie they are prebiotic), but some are more prebiotic than others and are highlighted in a darker green type.
2. Fermented foods that contain beneficial live microbes to become part of the gut microbiome (probiotics) are highlighted in gold type (if not already highlighted in green type as a plant) and with a gold microbe icon in the food popups.
3. Foods that are likely to be ultra-processed (UPFs) — ie, contain ingredients not found in a home kitchen such as preservatives, flavorings, and emulsifiers — and are likely to have a harmful effect on the gut microbiome are highlighted in red type (if not already highlighted in green type as a plant) and with a red warning triangle in the food popups. UPFs cause obesity for a variety of reasons and their harmful effect on the gut microbiome is linked to inflammation and many diseases including type 2 diabetes, high LDL "bad" cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, inflammatory diseases, cancer, depression, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's dementia and Parkinson's disease.
The app also allows users to add their own foods and recipes and provides nutritional information.
