Unlock Full Access to the NCCDB's Food Components
It is my understanding that Cronometer has a license to the NCC database. So, I'm unclear as to why we as users aren't given full access to every food component that is measured for that database. According to the NCC, they measure everything an enormous number of things:

I would love to be able to track phytic acid, oxalic acid, betaine, all forms of B6, and animal vs plant polyunsaturated fatty acids. Is there a practical reason why we aren't given access to those details?

Unfortunately our licensing agreement doesn’t allow us access to those items. The NCC have not allowed us to expand to report more nutrients

Is it still the case that we cant track betaine? Stay safe and well!

@aph Betaine is not available in the list of nutrients to track in Cronometer.

I would be very happy to have cronometer tracking phytate!

It would be great to have betaine, soluble/insoluble fiber, EPA/DHA and phytates available for tracking.
You can also create a workaround for this by allowing us to add custom nutrients to our targets and to our custom foods
