Gluten Free, bc the IgE
TL;DR: What are your favorite GF meals that don’t necessarily rely on the processed replacement foods? I couldn’t think of a decent title, lol.

Hello, Has anyone tried Ketone IQ? I'm checking it out. I asked them for their nutritional information and they gave me this: No carbs, no fat, no protein... just 10g of ketones per 35ml. The fine print also says it contains 2% other ingredients. I don't recognize any of these. It is said to give you energy. Does this make…

Supplement Tracking
It would be awesome if I could track supplements (vitamins/minerals.) Maybe even scan the barcodes. If micronutrients were added then these values would be very helpful to show where you may want to supplement.
