The science

Where the numbers come from.
What we will not claim.

Six pillars under the app. Plain language, real sources, honest limits.

Coverage at a glance

  • 400+

    conditions across 26 categories. Perimenopause, surgery recovery, paediatric, burnout, and more.

  • 200,000+

    food-and-condition mappings powered by 220+ physiological effect pathways

  • 2M+

    foods with 505,000 nutrient measurements from open public health data

  • 140+

    nutrients with RDA targets across 6 age groups, from 1–3 through 70+

  • 100+

    diets across 10 categories: medical, allergy, intolerance, religious, ethical, athletic

Public health data, not crowdsourced.

Every food in the app comes from open public health datasets maintained by national institutes for nutrition research, with documented methodology. We don't accept user-submitted nutrient values.

2M+

140+ nutrients, because there are 140+ that matter.

Macros (protein, carbs, fat) are seven of those numbers. The remaining 130+ are vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, amino acids, and bioactives. Skipping them is what most apps do. We don't.

Cooked, raw, serving size — modelled individually.

Pan-fried salmon is a different row from oven-baked salmon. Boiled spinach is a different row from raw spinach. Cooking changes nutrient retention, and we track that. If a food isn't in the database, the AI suggests the closest matched generic and flags it so you know.

Effects, conditions, diets — mapped, not assumed.

We map 400+ conditions to nutrient implications and 220+ effects to specific foods, based on peer-reviewed nutrition science. The coach uses these mappings to suggest specific food, not blanket advice.

The AI coach reads your data.

The coach references peer-reviewed nutrition literature plus your own last 30 days of logs. It suggests food. It does not prescribe supplements, diagnose, or recommend interventions outside its scope.

What we won't claim.

We will not claim to cure disease. We will not push supplements. We will not invent deficits to drive a sale. We will tell you when something is on our roadmap and not yet real. The science is humble; so are we.

The honest part

Nutrition science changes. So will the app.

When new evidence supersedes a recommendation, we change the recommendation. We document those changes in the changelog inside the app. If you ever see the coach say something you can't source, write to us. We read every email.

Try the thing.
Then read the science again.
