Food and Symptoms Diary

This mobile food and symptoms diary enables you to track down food intolerances such as lactose, histamine or sorbitol intolerance, fructose malabsorption or food allergies. It can also be used to figure out your personal threshold (tolerance level) for different foods once a diagnosis has been made. The app contains neither advertisements nor any hidden costs such as in-app purchases. ----- Why use this app? ----- If you believe that you may be suffering from some form of food intolerance or food allergy it is essential to keep a food diary. With the help of a food and symptoms diary the medical professional you are consulting can narrow down the reasons for your symptoms. This means they can focus on the right follow-up (eg. H2 breath test) and thus reach an accurate diagnosis. The app can also be used after diagnosis. Different foods need to be tested to establish a person’s individual tolerance level. Here, too, keeping a symptoms or a food diary makes sense. The app is simple and intuitive. You can record your daily meals by entering them into the diary or quickly and easily take a photo. You can also note down your symptoms as well as the degree of severity and produce a clearly readable PDF which you can take to your doctor’s appointment. Symptoms can also be recorded as a photo, which is especially useful when you have symptoms such as rashes or other skin changes.
