FAQs

What are Essential Amino Acids (EAAs)?

Essential Amino Acids are amino acids your body can't make on its own, so you must get them from food. Getting enough EAAs supports muscle repair, recovery, and overall health.

Why does the app focus on EAAs and not just protein grams?

Protein grams tell you quantity. EAAs help indicate quality. With plant proteins, combining sources can improve amino acid coverage. The goal is simple: hit your target while keeping quality strong.

Do I need protein powder?

Not necessarily. Many people can hit their target with whole foods (tofu, tempeh, beans, lentils, edamame, soy milk, seitan). Protein powder is optional and can be helpful for convenience.

How do I change my goal, weight, activity level, or meals per day?

Open Settings → Profile and update your values. Your targets and planning will adjust.

Why doesn't my receipt match what I expected?

Receipts reflect what was logged for that day. If a meal wasn't logged (or was logged on a different day), it won't appear on the receipt.
