Was wanting to partner
I had planned on using Cronometer for 40K patients, but not getting any response from anyone has me looking at other solutions. Too bad this is the best software out there,
Re: Ingredients list
If you want to edit the ingredients of a recipe "on the fly" — so change them every time you enter the Recipe to your diary without editing the Recipe itself — you might benefit from using the "explode" option:

And if you do it for all of your recipes, you can turn on "always explode":

Re: Tracking per week
Thanks! Even though it's an important feature for me, I've decided to go pro
Until implementation and release I'll use simple Google Sheet to track "left to eat" calories. If anyone is interested, here is a screenshot with formulas:
Sleep Apple Health
Is it correct that while Cronometer has now added sleep tracking via connected devices, this does not include Apple Health?
[WE WANT] Image of nutrition label to Text!
Make pic of food label, press button, done. Others can do it. Crono can't.

Re: Entering Macros instead of foods
Hi @JenniPotts in general we recommend using data with the most nutrients in order to get a clear, complete picture of our health. You can learn more about choosing the best data for your needs here: https://cronometer.com/blog/6-tips-getting-nutrition-data/
That being said, one of my colleagues recently added a couple of options to the database to easily add some macronutrients to your dairy without needing to create a recipe. Search the database for:
Quick Add, Calorie
Quick Add, Carbohydrate
Quick Add, Fat
Quick add, Protein
Enter the serving size as the number of grams of each macronutrient when adding to your diary. This isn't the best solution to get a good picture of your overall health though, so I would recommend using this method sparingly, and spend the time building up your own database of custom recipes.
Re: Welcome to Ask An Expert!
@PAM Contact me through my site www.franklynutritious.com and I can make some recommendations for potassium supplements. There are so many companies out there you have to be careful. Many are very good, but the vast majority are very bad and not selling you anything of value.
Start with adding some of these foods: sea salt (Celtic and Himila are really good ones).
Avocados 1 cup = 727mg
Beet root leaves 1 cup = 1200mg
Swiss Chard 1 cup = 960mg
Spinach 1 cup = 838mg
Have that as a salad will almost nail your potassium for the day!
Other foods: Salmon, halibut, tuna, paprika, and cacao.
Re: Fiber: Soluble vs Insoluble
Soluble fibre is a key component of the "portfolio diet" (arguably one of the most effective strategies for lowering LDL cholesterol). On this diet, 10-25 g of soluble fibre is recommended per day. This is a great resource that highlights the amount of soluble fibre in food.

Keep in mind that insoluble fibre is also important in our diet. Not only does it prevent constipation and regulate bowel movements, but it can actually lower the calorie density of our diets.
Kind regards,
