How the Health Score Is Calculated in The AI Nutrition Tracker
Your Health Score (1–100) is calculated by our advanced AI nutrition model, which analyzes your meal’s image and description to estimate its nutritional composition. The algorithm evaluates your meal against a comprehensive health rubric, prioritizing:
-
Macronutrient Balance: The ratio of protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates.
-
Nutrient Density: The presence of fiber and essential micronutrients like Iron and Magnesium.
-
Ingredient Quality: Whole foods receive higher scores, while ultra-processed items, added sugars, and high saturated fats lower the score.
Your score is an AI-generated estimate. If you edit ingredients or portion sizes, the model will dynamically recalculate your score to reflect the most accurate nutritional profile.
Score Ranges:
-
85–100: Optimal — excellent, well-balanced nutrition
-
70–84: Balanced — good with minor improvements possible
-
50–69: Moderate — fair, room for improvement
-
0–49: Low Nutritional Value— significant improvements needed
