Safety and our approach
Nutrition touches health. Here is how Makronia works and what it deliberately does not do.
Principles
No invented values
Foods without a catalog match get no calories or macros; missing data is never shown as zero.
No unapproved changes
AI coach suggestions apply only after you confirm; a dietitian-approved plan is never changed by the coach.
No sharing without consent
Your dietitian sees health information only within the scope you approve.
Preference is not allergy
Disliking a food is not a medical exclusion; allergies and restrictions are a separate, higher-priority check.
Nutrition data
Values come from a catalog built on open sources such as USDA FoodData Central, with each entry's source recorded. Openly licensed recipes carry author and licence attribution. All values are estimates.
The role of AI
AI answers questions and drafts suggestions. Energy and macro calculations are rule-based and are not left to AI. Suggestions always pass through you or your dietitian.
Editorial standards
Makronia guide articles cite their sources and show publication and update dates. Health articles are not published until expert review is complete, and the reviewer is named. We do not publish rapid weight-loss claims or claims that a diet treats disease.
When to see a health professional
- You are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have diabetes, kidney, liver or heart disease, or take regular medication.
- You have a history of disordered eating.
- You have unexplained weight loss or a worrying test result.
Makronia does not diagnose, treat or recommend supplements. If you have a health condition, talk to your doctor or dietitian before changing how you eat.
Makronia is in closed beta and free during the beta. No payment is taken and pricing has not been announced.
