A Balanced Diet supplies protein, carbs, fats, fiber, and micronutrients to match energy needs.
| Model | Practical target |
|---|---|
| Plate method | Half vegetables and fruit, one quarter protein, one quarter starch, add healthy fats |
| Macro split | Protein 1.6–2.2 g/kg per day, fat 0.6–1.0 g/kg, carbs fill remaining calories |
| Food quality | Favor higher nutrient density foods to hit vitamins and minerals within calories |
Nutrient Density compares vitamins and minerals to calories.
Macronutrient Profile shows how your daily calories split across protein, carbs, and fat.
Portion Control keeps meals aligned with targets without full weighing.
A Serving Size is the reference amount on a label; your portion can be different.
