FAQ

Questions people ask before using MealDaddy.

MealDaddy is flexible: it can help with one meal, a restaurant decision, daily tracking, or a full feedback loop across nutrition, hydration, inflammation, and reports.

What is MealDaddy.AI?

MealDaddy.AI is a personalized food guidance tool for meal planning, restaurant choices, the Nutrition Tracking Engine™, Adaptive Hydration™, Inflammation Score™ System, and daily feedback.

Do I have to track everything?

No. You can use MealDaddy casually for one meal or one restaurant choice. The more detail you provide, the more personal the guidance becomes.

Should I upload a photo or type a description?

For the deepest interpretation, do both: upload a photo and add a short description of ingredients, portions, sauces, drinks, or anything the photo might miss. Either one can work, but photo plus description gives MealDaddy the best context.

Can MealDaddy help me choose a restaurant?

Yes. Ask it to find restaurants in a geographic area that fit your goals, then use restaurant mode to search menus and decide what to order before walking in the door.

Can it customize restaurant orders?

Yes. MealDaddy can suggest swaps for sauces, sides, drinks, carbs, proteins, and portions based on your goals and preferences.

What health goals can I use?

Examples include weight control, low carb, higher protein, healthier eating, fiber targets, hydration goals, sodium awareness, and type 2 diabetes-friendly preferences, but you can customize it to track what is most important to you.

What is the Inflammation Score?

The Inflammation Score™ System is a guidance score that considers processing level, refined carbohydrates, added sugars, alcohol, seed oils, and whole-food balance. It helps spot patterns over time.

How does Adaptive Hydration work?

Adaptive Hydration™ tracks your water goal and can adjust guidance based on meals. A salty restaurant meal may raise the suggested hydration target for the day.

What happens when I say "Finish my day"?

MealDaddy can create a daily summary with calories, protein, net carbs, fiber, fat, hydration progress, inflammation score, insights, and a next-day plan.

Can I export my logs?

Yes. Planned export commands include "Export my week" and "Create my log file" for daily logs and weekly summaries.

Does MealDaddy diagnose or treat medical conditions?

No. MealDaddy gives food guidance and tracking support, but it does not replace advice from a doctor, dietitian, or qualified clinician.

Do I need ChatGPT to use it?
