Too much spam/useless entries in the catalogue
The more I use cronometer, the more I feel it's flooded with usability problems. I do a lot of home-cooking, almost exclusively in fact. The latest problem I'm having is the catalogue is absolutely swamped with useless or replicated entries. I want to add raw chicken thighs to my recipe. This is what I'm presented with… -
Omega-6 Deficiency
Salutations from sunny Greece.. B) I've come across a weird problem. Been following the Mediterranean diet for the last four months, mainly for weight loss (I'm morbidly obese). So far the results have been pretty good. While trying to lose weight, I'm also interested in the nutritional value of my food, not only the… -
Are the Macro bars showing correct information for the total?
Help shows this info regarding the 4 macro bars - "If the default fixed targets are used, the four macro bars will all show fixed targets which you can configure by click on the bars. For all other selections, the targets will be dynamically computed based on several factors. The energy target will be derived dynamically… -
Re: Set point, macros and performance struggles
Thanks for all this I actually have a masters in exercise physiology and sports nutrition (so that is not my current career) so I have the knowledge I know where to look up the research but sometimes it is hardest when it is yourself. I really want to see what my body does with a higher carb training diet as far as… -
Re: How do I get 100% targets on a vegan diet (with meal plans please)?
@maxb The website you mention is referencing this research: Baglia ML, et. al. The association of soy food consumption with the risk of subtype of breast cancers defined by hormone receptor and HER2 status. International journal of cancer. 2016 Aug 15;139(4):742-8. That's why the last sentence of that paragraph is talking… -
Amount left (remaining) of a food / grocery item / meal (recipe), auto-subtracted
I've been considering this request for a while now, hope it sounds cool and a good idea :-) What if cronometer could keep track of how much left you have of a real food item? (Ie. not necessarily a recipe you might cook again or fetch again from a big supply of the same type of items (ie. amounts of almonds, bag of… -
Re: Our new look!
NOT A FAN! :# I haven't renewed my Gold membership after previous unpleasant changes, and you can be sure I will not be redoing now for sure! This set up may be perfect for a phone app, but on a laptop (as I am using) it is really bad! It's hard to find things I need, the screen to search for food closes when I try and… -
Re: Amino Skepticism & Weightlifting
Carbohydrates fuel your muscles with glycogen and give you energy. I’m sure you have heard you can learn to burn fat, also true but it’s less efficient for most according to the literature in edurance athletes. Being able to burn fat is best. Some strategies are varying working out fasted (no carbs night before, no… -
Re: Omega and Fat intake
@HarvRoc20 You may wish to review the following blog on the Cronometer ratio of omega 3:6 - https://cronometer.com/blog/understanding-cronometers-nutrient-ratios/. As a vegan, I'm far more concerned about your omega 3 intake than your omega 6. A priority is to ensure your intake meets the "AI" (or adequate intake) for both…
