How we make this site

Nutrition data

Ingredient values come from official food composition databases, starting with USDA FoodData Central. Each page names its source and links the original record. % Daily Values are the US FDA ones.

Recipes

Recipes are entered in our recipe builder, which totals the nutrients from the ingredients. A recipe marked "Draft, not yet cooked" has not been tested in a kitchen yet; it gets a real photo when someone cooks it. Dish photos are always real.

Swaps and guide

Swap pages, expert profiles and topic summaries are written in our own words from the sources listed on each page, and each page shows the date its facts were last checked. Topic pages link every doctor's original words, with the minute in the video where they say it.

AI tools

We use AI tools to help draft, translate and check pages, the way a newsroom uses editors. A person reviews every topic before it goes on the site, and the sources on each page are what the facts rest on.

Health

Everything here is education, not medical advice. Ask your doctor before changing your diet, medicines or supplements.
