Spot micronutrient gaps while you track calories

Macros matter. They aren’t the whole story. CalBuddy surfaces micronutrient gap-style insights so nutrients people often under-eat aren’t invisible day after day.

Macros aren’t enough

You can hit protein and still wonder why you feel off. Fatigue, brittle nails, cold hands, and similar complaints have many causes. Some are associated with low intake or deficiency of nutrients like iron, B12, vitamin D, zinc, or magnesium, see NIH ODS fact sheets for nutrient-by-nutrient education.

This page is not telling you that you have a deficiency. It’s saying: if you’re already tracking food, you might as well see gap patterns in what you log.

Quick-glance gaps

The product angle is glanceable awareness while you log, not a lab report. CalBuddy does not analyze your blood or diagnose deficiency.

CalBuddy is for general wellness and fitness tracking only and is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Educational content describes nutrient associations, not diagnoses. Talk to a clinician about persistent symptoms or before supplementing.

Tracking only helps if you keep logging

Gap insights are useless if the diary dies on Thursday. Connect a buddy for overage / 2-day miss / junk-food alerts so the data keeps coming.
