this tracker is great for counting the calories but how do I ensure I get the right amount of nutrients? I've added iron to my tracking and it tells me I need 100per day but 100 what? The RDA is 15 mg.

As far as I know, MFP measures nutrients by percent. So 100 means 100% of your daily value.0

Many of the foods in the database do not have the full data, so it would be a challenge to use MFP for this TBH.0 -
Thanks for your post. any ideas how to track this? I've been seeing a dietician recently but she seems very reluctant to help with nutrient tracking.0
