    Fiber and potassium IMO.

    The others (particularly vitamins) fall into place if you're getting fiber and potassium from whole foods.

    I do protein, fat, carbs, fibre, and calcium.
    A lot of people on here choose sodium as one, good to track if you are eating processed foods everyday.

    Fat, Carb, Protein, Sodium, Fiber. That is what I keep track of. I really enjoy vegetables that have lots of calcium so I am typically not worried on that one.

    As well, the phone app allows you to track all of them.
