Nutrition — foods & recipes
Updated on 2026-06-05
Nutrition
The Nutrition section is where you manage foods and recipes. It has two tabs: Foods and Recipes.
Foods
Foods are the source of nutrition values. The list combines the shared system database with your own private foods.
- Search to find a food. The star adds it to your favorites (favorites show first).
- New food adds a food. Enter protein, carbs and fat per a given amount (e.g. per 100 g) — calories are calculated automatically unless you type them in.
- Edit any food to change its values — your changes are yours alone and never affect anyone else.
- Remove from my list takes a food off your list.
Recipes
Recipes are dishes you can edit and save. The list shows ready-made recipes plus your own, with a meal filter (breakfast, lunch, main meal, supper, snack, dessert).
- Tap the star to favorite a recipe.
- Tap any recipe to open it. You get the editor — name, cover photo, ingredients, then description and meals.
- New recipe builds one from scratch with the same editor.
Adding ingredients
Press Add ingredient to open the picker. Search by name, or narrow the list with the two filters — Macros (protein / carbs / fat / combos / low-calorie) and Food group (meat, dairy, vegetables…). Both are multi-select, so pick as many as you like. Tick everything you want and press Add selected — they all drop into the recipe at once. Typed something that isn't in the database? Add it as your own custom ingredient.
Each added ingredient shows as a compact row: name, amount, unit, and a calorie/macro preview. Change the amount and the totals update live. Foods that are naturally counted (eggs, fruit, chicken breast, a slice of bread, a tablespoon of oil) are added in that unit — e.g. 1 szt. (≈63 g) for an egg — so you type "2" instead of "126 g". Switch the unit to grams on any such row if you prefer exact weights. If you need to correct an ingredient's nutrition values, open Edit macros on that row — otherwise you never have to touch them.
Scaling the meal
Under Scale portion & macros you can nudge the whole meal up or down: a portion slider plus per-macro (protein/carbs/fat) sliders. Scalable ingredients follow the sliders; fixed ones (salt, spices) stay put. The totals reflect the scaling instantly.
Editing a recipe
Open a recipe and change whatever you like — swap ingredients, change amounts, add or remove rows, edit the description or meals. The calorie and macro totals follow from the ingredient amounts.
When you save a ready-made recipe you've changed, it's kept as your own copy and appears in your list — the original is left untouched, so you never have to worry about which is which. Your own recipes also have a Delete.
