Is there a way to do this? Add quick protein to our food log like we can add quick calories to the food log?

    Sure. Just add a new 'My Food' where 1 gram of protein equals 4 K/Cal.

    ^^Yup. I created custom foods for sodium, potassium, fiber, and fat. Also works when subtracting by using negative numbers. (e.g. decrease sodium on a sandwich by holding the pickles)

    I don't know why we would have a 'quick add'.... either you eat it or you don't. Can someone explain to me why we have it?
