This free app offers two advanced and unique-in-the-industry features. Natural Sources of various nutrients and substances found in our food supply including many elements usually ignored by others. For example, oxalate (which can lead to kidney stones among other health issues), purine (which can lead to joint pain and gout) , Myo-Inositol (which is very helpful to conditions such as PCOS), pesticides (which is a major risk factor for cancer), glycemic index, gluten, mercury, probiotics, prebiotics, ALA, beta glucan, biotin, boron, chloride, chromium, CoQ10, iodine, molybdenum, silicon, sulfur, tyramine, vanadium, ... and more. With this feature you will discover the top sources of these important nutrients and substances some of which can be helpful and some harmful to your health. Food Facts -- comprehensive nutrient content of about 900 different natural food items, and guidance on whether a given nutrient amount is significant/meaningful or not. There are hundreds of sources for nutrient content of food and by law every food product must list its content for a limited number of nutrients. But many other important nutrients and substances such as the ones mentioned earlier are left out. The USDA which is the most referenced source for nutrient data does NOT track and report these other nutrient and substance data. Nowadays there is a lot of emphasis on food-as-medicine among different vendors, organizations and the government. But often what they mean by food-as-medicine is either food insecurity or that food and nutrition matter to our health. At Personal Remedies, we actually single out specific food items that can serve as "medicine" for specific illness or individual. We list those food items that are helpful and those that are harmful to your unique health profile. Not all vegetables and fruits are alike. Some are helpful and some are harmful to your health. And there are no superfoods! A food that can be super helpful to one individual, could be harmful or even fatal to another! You can learn more on our web site or soon to be published our illness-specific apps.
