Standard Mode

The default: general targets, your own restrictions, and no mode-specific tracker

3 min readUpdated Sep 2, 2026

Standard is the mode you are in until you apply another one. It adds nothing on top of what your profile already decides.

What it does

  • Targets: the general daily targets, for example sodium between 1,500 and 2,300 mg and potassium between 2,600 and 4,700 mg, with magnesium set by your sex. Your lab results and health conditions adjust these.
  • Foods to limit: only what your allergies, medications and conditions already exclude. Standard adds no avoid-list of its own.
  • Recommendations: built from your labs and conditions, the same way every mode's are.
  • What you can track

    Everything that is not tied to a mode: food, water, weight, blood pressure, blood glucose, exercise, symptoms and fasts. On the web these live under Track; on the phone under the Track tab.

    Standard has no tracker of its own on the phone. Its mode screen lists what the mode covers and points to those logs.

    When to stay on Standard

  • You are not managing a specific condition or goal.
  • You are unsure which mode fits. Nothing about Standard is worse for you than a specialised mode; the specialised modes only tighten or raise particular targets.
  • Your clinician has given you targets that no mode matches. Log against the general targets and use your lab results to steer.
  • Returning to Standard

    On the web, open Diet Modes and apply another mode; there is no Standard card there, because Standard is what you have when no other mode is applied. On the phone, Standard is a card under Available Modes and you can tap it to go back. See Switching Between Modes.
