Hello, I'm considering to changing back from fitbit.

1. What macro nutrients can you track?
2. Can I track Vitamin C
3. Can I track Folic acid
4. can I track Omega 3 fatty acids
5. Can I track iron
6. Do I need a premium membership to track these and how much is that?

    1. All of them, unless you call alcohol a macro.
    2. Yes, if you conscientiously pick entries from the food database that accurately reflect it.
    3. No.
    4. No.
    5. Yes, if you conscientiously pick entries from the food database that accurately reflect it.
    6. No. I don't know how much it costs - maybe varies by country and sometimes there are special offers.

    With the micronutrients and vitamins you really need to check the database entries as this is a worldwide app, and all this nutritional information is not a must in most countries, and hence is not available in many database entries. The same is probably true to all other similar websites/apps.
