1. EDIT 4/10: Thank you, Denise... it works perfectly now!What a great app! I've had a multi page Excel spreadsheet on my phone, but these lists are useful, including common foods and a lot of good reminders and refreshers.
2. Only suggestion would be is to make a search options of all the categories at once instead of having to find the specific category first.To prevent more kidney stones I must control the oxalate in my diet.
3. Since it lists the amount of oxalate present in each food, it allows the user to differentiate between foods which should be avoided completely and foods which can be eaten in moderation.
4. Thanks for putting the information in an easy to search format.I use the app as a guide in navigating a new way of eating for preventing future stones and all around cleaner eating.
5. As anything health related, this isn't the end-all but a super helpful guide to help plan a better lifestyle.So very helpful for people managing kidney stones.
6. This wonderful app provides searchable food items divided into food groups, and shows the oxalate content in each.
7. If you've done any research on low oxalate diets you know the lists can vary widely with some items being regarded as low on one list to very high on another.
8. This app is a perfect addition for me to cross-reference in making dietary changes even at quick glance at an impromptu lunch.So thankful for this app, easy to use and navigate quickly.
9. I've learned from this easy to use app that I was ingesting some seriously rich oxalate foods, because they were my favorites.
10. It is a great supplement to my doctor's instructions.Just started using app and it is very easy and thorough.
11. The food lists are great, but they only scroll while your finger is in contact with the screen.
