Frequently Asked Questions

Why do calorie counts vary?

Food is a natural product. An apple grown in sunlight might have slightly more sugar than one grown in shade. FDA regulations allow for a 20% margin of error on labels. We calculate averages based on thousands of data points.

Should I weigh raw or cooked?

Always weigh food raw if possible. Cooking methods (boiling vs roasting) change water content drastically, altering the weight but not the calories.

How do I track when dining out?

It's harder to be precise. Try to deconstruct the meal: estimate the protein portion (palm size), carb portion (fist size), and add 1-2 tbsp of oil for cooking fats, which are often hidden.
