Descargar Fibre Counter and Tracker para PC

1. 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.

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. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. Some unpasteurised cheeses may be probiotic, but cheeses are not highlighted as probiotic because cheeses are usually pasteurised; and also because pregnant women, young children, the elderly, and people who are immunosuppressed are advised not to eat unpasteurised cheese to avoid potentially fatal listeriosis.

7. Set your daily fibre intake based on guidance provided in the app and your preferences for weights of food (g or oz) and display of fiber content in foods and beverages (ie, %target/serving, g/100g or g/1oz, or %target/100g or %target/1oz).

8. Record food and beverage consumption using the barcode scanner, speech recognition, or by favoriting foods and using the serving sizes provided (which can be changed at any time).

9. Use this app to consume a diverse high-fibre diet for a healthy gut microbiome, which is key for immune system function to prevent inflammation-linked diseases.

10. Fiber also improves gut function, lowering the risk of constipation, diverticular disease, and haemorrhoids.

11. Use the notepad if desired.
