Have I messed up a setting or have changed happen?

It can't possibly have the same nutrition as ripe mango. But I don't see any way to enter it.

70 g Soft Pretzel, Salted: 48.5 g
0.67 outer leaf - large - 24 g Lettuce, Green Leaf: 0.4 g
100 g Beef, cured, smoked, chopped: 1.9 g

In Apple HealthKit, the following values were written by Cronometer:

49.7 g
0.65 g
1.9 g

According to the nutrition label, there are 335 kcal per 100g. However, when I scan the product and take photos, the app incorrectly assigns 335 kcal to a single piece (17g).

One piece weighs 17g, but it should not be calculated as having the full 335 kcal. How can I correct this so the app understands that 335 kcal is the value for 100g and not for the individual 17g serving

For example yesterday I entered 14.66 servings of BBQ sauce because the full bottle wasn't an option 🤦‍♀️

What’s the best way to log a homemade vegetable juice in Cronometer?

I usually make a juice with several raw vegetables (e.g. carrot, celery, beetroot, cucumber, etc.) using a slow juicer. Since the fiber is removed (not a smoothie)/
I’m not sure if I should enter the raw vegetables separately, search for “juice” entries, or use custom recipes.

Any tips to get the most accurate micronutrient tracking would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance 🙏

If I search for a food by typing its name and log it, the next time I type-search it, it shows up immediately in my recent/commonly used items. Super fast and convenient.

However, if I scan a barcode to add a food, Cronometer does not seem to remember it in the same way. If i later try to text search that exact same item is difficult or nearly impossible to find again. It doesn’t appear in recent items even though I’ve already logged it before.

Why is that? Is that normal? Am I doing something wrong?

Much thanks!

I recently completed identifying all of 2025 outflows, inclusive of a sub category of social expenditures, by tagging specific payees as Pub or Restaurant and/or memo field keyword (Social, Alcohol).

As I live in Ireland, just going for a pint is a social norm, as like in many other parts of the world.

I then track Alcohol as food in Cronometer, and I get the nutritional data tracked.

I now add two biomarkers

• Units per consumption (Using https://alcoholireland.ie/drinks-calculator/)
• Drinking Ratio (times per week):
  .... - This is the ratio (per month, 28/30/31 days) of Drinking Days:Non-Drinking Days, then multiplied by 7 days for per month weekly average).

The two major blind spots from analysing expenditures are, particularly after the fact:

• Restaurant bills (as it difficult to reverse guestimate, unless you get a copy of receipt, which may be socially awkward)
• Grocery basket (like above, unless one tracks the receipts)

Like with all behavioural economics and adjustments, 21 days to make a habit, etc, adding these new patterns takes time (1-3 months) like tracking alcohol consumption.

Cronometer make this “accounting” a breeze without (for me) any shame, and more fact based when talking to my GP and Medical Professionals (like with Hepatology etc).

I have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and reducing (to zero) alcohol consumption as a co-factor post diagnosis is a strong recommendation

It looks like it's trying to do this, but it shows only some of my recent foods and it's appears to be not based on the time of day I normally add things. It also seems to list things that I never eat, so it seems to be trying to suggest based on what it thinks I should or might want. That's OK, but list after the things I normally choose for that time of day.

My main example is that I eat one of 4 different things for breakfast most days. Any tie before 11am, those 4 things should be the first 4 items listed and ordered based on either frequency of use or last use.

Thanks!
