About this site

Meal Facts is a notebook about ordinary food questions. How much protein is enough, whether salt really matters, what a label is trying to tell you.

I am not a doctor or a dietitian. I read the public guidelines and the larger studies, and I write down what they say in plain words with the numbers left in. Every note ends with its sources, so if I got something wrong you can check it yourself.

Nothing here is personal medical advice. If you have a health condition, your own doctor knows things about you that a website cannot.

There are no ads, no tracking scripts and no newsletter. The pages are plain files and load fast on a bad connection.
