@kathleen1314 , ok... now you sound like a sister from another mother (smile). I have gluten intolerance and use cronometer free version also. It's been very helpful. As has been my new tool .. AI Co-Pilot. I try to get most of my needs through food vs supplement. It's more absorbable. I'll supplement if needed. So I change my diet and monitor with cronometer. For instance, I drink Fairlife fat free milk to get calcium for my osteoporosis. It's a complete protein (with all amino acids), high calcium, lower sugar and lactose free. Researching how to lower LDL further I came across soy and oat milk as substitutes. But I need the amino acids to support bone health which led me to oat bran (includes beta-glucan; high soluble fiber that is know to reduce ldl cholesterol). I eat steel cut oats today but will include beta-glucan now. Btw, beta-glucan is gluten free. Technically Fairlife should be ok reducing ldl but I may go the next level with alternating with soy or oat based milks.
