Sometimes the product doesn't list all the details on the side of the package - but if CronOmeter is using one of their other databases you might get that info anyway.Ĭholine is turned off in Cronometer by default. so things like Omega 3 won't be showing up there. that database is limited to the info on the nutritional label of the package. But Cronometer is linked to a bunch of databases. I didn't buy that brand of flax seed - I just used it in Cronometer. I just played around till I found a flax seed that does list it. It turns out that TJ's flax seed doesn't list omega 3's in their Nutrients Facts. But Cronometer wasn't showing any Omega 3. I ground it myself and added it to my oatmeal. I had bought Some Trader Joe's Roasted Flax Seed. This came up just recently in my Cronometer. It does not mean that the food doesn't have that nutrient. If the food label doesn't include info on that nutrient - it doesn't show up in CronOmeter. The thing that has come up on my CronOmeter is that CronOmeter relies on the food's Nutrients Fact label. We also have a process to correct food items that you find are out of date.So there are a few reasons that could be. Theyre off on many things, i cant remember what else but i think their numbers for folate and some b vitamins are off, depending on food. Having an accurate and curated database is what sets us apart from other nutrition trackers, so we'll want to get this fixed quickly! We also have a process to correct food items that you find are out of date.
It could be they are confusing the %DV shown on the package label with their % nutrient targets - that's a common misunderstanding. Do you have any examples of foods and I could dig in a little deeper. I'm not quite sure I understand what the last comment is about. However, if you add a generic version from NCCDB we do include the amount of zinc in foods, as Seven pointed out in this thread. Manufacturers to don't report zinc content of their products. Some foods are provided by outside sources, like ESHA and Food Data Central and the data also comes from the nutrition label on packages of food.Ĭronometer shows 0 zinc intake: this one sounds like the person is adding a brand name product to their diary. Foods entered this was are labelled CRDB in the food search. so if theres a website which in writing, mentions milk contains 20mcg folate per cup or whatever itll pick it up, but if its an image it wontĪre you wondering where the data comes from? We enter brand name product data manually from photos of the package label. cronometer i think only detects things that are in writing. the manganese and other vitamin content of milk, coconut water etc is listed on the nutrition labels for products which are images. the method they use, doesn't take into account images. It seems to be based on a search engine of some kind which maybe like google searches the food product to search nutrition stats. coconut water is like 1.7mg manganese per 16oz or something and cronometer doesnt show it. I dont think they had the right numbers for milk, nor orange juice nor coconut water. I suggest taking a look at this blog as it should help you navigate Cronometer to it's fullest capabilities to enable you to obtain more accurate information on both macro and micronutrients.Ĭlick to expand.theyre off on many things, i cant remember what else but i think their numbers for folate and some b vitamins are off, depending on food. By performing text-based searches when adding foods, most whole foods can be found from the NCCDB which lists many, many more vitamins and minerals in their nutrient profiles. The best way to get the most nutrition information is to use our most comprehensive database - the NCCDB.
CRONOMETER NUTRITION LABEL FULL
The nutrition data for these foods come from the manufacturer reported on the nutrition label.īranded products oftentimes don't list full nutrient profiles on their nutrition labels. These include more complete nutrient profiles for foods compared with brand name sources like ESHA, CRDB, Nutritionix and UPC. There are lab analyzed foods from sources like NCCDB and USDA. We have different data sources available that determines the availability of nutrients for each food.
