Educational Food Composition Notice & Methodology

The 11 Unitrition dietary frameworks are computational nutritional reference models based on open food composition databases (USDA FoodData Central, ANSES CIQUAL, Open Food Facts). This platform operates strictly as an educational food calculator and dietary self-monitoring utility. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, disease treatment, or individual dietary plans. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider or registered dietitian for individual health decisions.
