  title: foodose Glp1 Target API
  version: 1.0.0
  summary: GLP-1 nutrition targets and a cited food database.
  description: Daily calorie, protein and fibre targets for someone on a GLP-1 receptor agonist, modelled with a dose aware appetite ceiling rather than the standard assumption that appetite is unchanged. Free, anonymous and cacheable. Weight, height and age are never stored. The engine is the one behind the Foodose iPhone app (https://apps.apple.com/app/id6766828479), which applies it every morning to plate a day of food around the user's GLP-1 dose week. Educational only. Not medical advice, not a diagnosis, and not a substitute for the clinician who prescribes the medication. Not appropriate for pregnancy, breastfeeding, insulin or sulfonylurea use, a history of disordered eating, or anyone under 18.

      summary: Daily calorie, protein and fibre targets at a given dose
      description: 'Runs the published 12 layer calculation: Mifflin St Jeor BMR, activity multiplier, adaptive thermogenesis, goal calories, then the appetite ceiling, a modelled estimate of the most a person is likely to manage per day at that medication and dose. When the ceiling falls below the calorie target the response says so rather than pretending the gap is not there. Call with no parameters to get the contract back. Educational only. Not medical advice, not a diagnosis, and not a substitute for the clinician who prescribes the medication. Not appropriate for pregnancy, breastfeeding, insulin or sulfonylurea use, a history of disordered eating, or anyone under 18.'
