This study is looking into whether a smartphone app called MyFitnessPal can be used by people with amyloidosis (a rare disease where abnormal proteins build up in organs) to track their diet and supplements. The goal is to understand more about malnutrition and weight loss in amyloidosis patients. You would use the MyFitnessPal app on your own smartphone for about 8 weeks to log what you eat and any herbal or alternative supplements you take. Researchers will also ask you to fill out questionnaires at the beginning, after two weeks, and at the end of the study. This study is open to adults aged 18 or older who have any type of amyloidosis, can read and write English, and are willing to use the MyFitnessPal app. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 40 participants.
