Subject: Your alcohol-recovery patients — full clinical picture, emailed to you weekly

Dear Dr [Surname],

Your patients in alcohol recovery want to give you good data between appointments — they simply don't have the tools. By the time they sit down in front of you, they can't tell you which days they took thiamine, whether they hit 140 g of protein, how their salt intake looked, or when their mood dipped.

Anchor Recovery was built to close that gap. It is a free companion app for anyone cutting back or abstaining from alcohol, designed around a single premise: doctors love knowing everything — so give them everything, on the cadence they choose, in one clean PDF, without them having to log in anywhere.

At the centre of the app is a one-tap "Email my doctor" button. The patient enters your email address once and picks Weekly / Fortnightly / Monthly. From that moment on, a dated PDF report lands in your inbox automatically. No dashboard. No login. No chasing.

What the patient tracks every day (and what you see in the PDF)

1. Medication Tracker — the centrepiece

• Every medication the patient is on: naltrexone, acamprosate, disulfiram, thiamine, B-complex, folic acid, propranolol, SSRIs, anti-craving agents — whatever you've prescribed.
• Configurable dose, frequency and reminder times.
• Live alarms fire on the patient's phone at the exact reminder time — this is not retrospective ticking, it is real-time adherence.
• The PDF shows adherence % across the window, a per-day dose grid (ticked / missed), and flags any medication missed more than twice.
• Result: you walk into consult already knowing exactly what they took and when.

2. Diet Tracker — the four numbers you actually want

• Protein (target 140 g/day) — critical for the malnourished discharged patient. Daily total, weekly average, days below target.
• Salt (target < 2 g/day) — essential for hypertension, ascites, or diuretic patients.
• Water (target 1.5 L/day) — the ceiling matters as much as the floor in decompensated liver disease.
• Milk intake — logged in 100 / 250 / 500 ml presets. Useful for calorie & calcium picture.
• Carbohydrates — daily total, so you can see whether they are actually eating.
• Rings turn amber → red when patients drift. They notice they are off-track before the next appointment, not after.

3. AI Meal Planner — "What's in the fridge?"

• Patient photographs the fridge (or types what they have). App generates 3 high-protein, low-salt, alcohol-free recipes in seconds — with cost, prep time, and macros.
• Plated-meal photo scanner: photo of dinner → estimated protein / salt / carbs / calories.
• Food-label scanner: photo of any packet → parsed nutrition panel.
• The PDF lists which recipes they saved and cooked — a genuine proxy for engagement.
• Massive for the malnourished discharged patient with £30 for the week who doesn't know what to cook.

4. Document Scanner — patient numbers, blood tests, discharge letters

• Patient photographs anything: hospital number card, NHS / Medicare number, blood-test letters, discharge summaries, appointment cards, GP referrals.
• Stored encrypted, tagged, searchable.
• The patient's hospital / patient ID number is saved once and appears at the top of every PDF you receive — so you match report to record in under 3 seconds.
• Every scanned document is attached as a read-only appendix in the PDF.

5. Quick-Read Summary — the 90-second glance

Every PDF opens with a plain-English paragraph for the moment you are walking into the consulting room:

That's the pitch: you know the whole picture before you sit down.

6. Also captured

• Sobriety counter with reset log and honest triggers.
• Daily mood rating (1–10) with tags: calm / anxious / hopeful / low / craving / restless.
• Correlation chart — mood vs. diet vs. adherence, so patterns surface.
• Glossary — plain-language AUD, GGT, ALT, MCV, thiamine, naltrexone, acamprosate. Patients arrive already understanding your vocabulary.

Why doctors keep using it

• You do nothing. No install, no login, no dashboard. Reports arrive on your chosen cadence.
• Cadence is your choice. Weekly post-detox, fortnightly through stabilisation, monthly for maintenance — patient sets it to your preference in one tap.
• Every report is dated, signed with the patient's ID number, and printable — file it, forward to MDT, no fuss.
• Free for the patient. Tracking, medication tracker, diet tracker, document scanner, glossary, and one PDF export per period — free forever. Only AI meal planner sits behind an optional subscription.
• No medical claims. Wellness journal. Approved by Apple's App Store team. Clear disclaimers on every relevant screen.
• Data ownership. Encrypted at rest. Patients export or delete anytime. GDPR / HIPAA-aligned.
