On the food section everytime I enter, for example 'prawns' or 'tin of tuna', it says that it contains 0g of protein. Surely this is incorrect, has anybody else noticed this? x

    ive noticed that and you may have to choose another option. i realized this when it said my peach had 30 gram of protein. i just had tuna today, typed it in and it was correct. some selections have like 4-5 choices. just pick the one that best fits your nutrition label.
  • Yep. My big thing is watching my potassium and half of the stuff (at least user entered) doesn't have potassium in the nutrition info. I have to poke around a bit to find one that does. At that point, there's no guarantee that it's right. But at least it's something, eh?
