This page explains the limits of the information published on recipesdiet.com. It forms part of our Terms & Conditions.
Not medical or dietetic advice
Everything on this Site — recipes, macros, articles, and the calorie, BMI and macro calculator — is general information for healthy adults. It is not medical, nutritional or dietetic advice and is no substitute for consultation with a qualified professional. Always consult your doctor or a registered dietitian before making significant dietary changes, especially if you have a medical condition, take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a history of disordered eating.
Nutrition figures are computed estimates
We compute nutrition per serving from weighed ingredient quantities using primary food-composition data such as USDA FoodData Central, and we verify that the macro arithmetic reconciles with the stated calories. They remain estimates: brands, cuts, ripeness, cooking losses and portioning all shift the real numbers. Treat every figure as a well-founded approximation, not a laboratory analysis.
Calculator results
The calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, standard activity multipliers and WHO BMI ranges. These are population formulas: your true maintenance calories can differ by several percent, and BMI does not distinguish muscle from fat. Results are a starting point for planning, nothing more. Nothing you enter is stored or transmitted.
Allergies and food safety
Always check ingredient labels for allergens — formulations vary by brand and country, and our recipes cannot account for cross-contamination in your kitchen or in packaged products. Follow the storage and temperature guidance in each recipe, and when in doubt, throw it out.
Diet suitability
Diet labels on our recipes (keto, vegan, Mediterranean, carnivore) reflect the recipe as written. Substitutions can change a recipe’s diet compliance and its macros — where we suggest swaps we recalculate their effect, but your own substitutions are your own arithmetic.
Advertising disclosure
The Site is supported by advertising, including Google AdSense. Advertisements are clearly distinguishable from editorial content, and advertisers have no influence over our recipes or their numbers.
Corrections
