Best resource for customized recipes: ChatGPT
AI has been a game changer for me on my wellness journey. I have used it to create gluten-free vegetarian recipes, high-protein recipes, and low-calorie snacks. It's an amazing tool for dietary restrictions—my sister uses it for her son that has a special diet. One of my favorite things about using it is that I can tell it…
Add check boxes in daily tracking
Hi! I think it would be SO helpful if you guys could add check boxes to the daily diary. I pre-track my food for the day but I also have ADHD so sometimes I forget if I have eaten or drank everything I've tracked. Just a very small example, like I might track two string cheeses but I don't want both at the same time. I can…

My little diet experiment
Hello everyone! Some time ago, I conducted a small experiment to understand how dietary fiber affects satiety, the development of gut microbiota (the community of microorganisms in the intestines), and their influence on blood glucose "spikes," as gut bacteria participate in digesting up to 80% of food.
