1. What this is
foodose.co is a free website: a GLP-1 nutrition calculator, a three day meal planner, a food database and a library of cited articles. Foodose is also an iPhone app, which tracks food, dose, symptoms, weight and cycle against the same numbers. Both are operated from India.
On the website there is no account to create, nothing to buy and nothing to cancel. The app has both, and sections 10 to 15 cover it. Using either means agreeing to what follows.
2. What it is not
It is not a medical device, not a clinic, and not a substitute for the person who prescribes your medication. It does not diagnose, treat, or prescribe. Every number it produces is educational and belongs in a conversation with a clinician rather than in place of one. See the medical disclaimer, which is the document that matters most on this site.
3. Who can use it
Anyone, though the content is written for adults on GLP-1 therapy and the calculator is modelled on adults between 18 and 75. If you are outside that range it will tell you so and decline to give you a deficit.
4. Using what is here
You may read, print, share and quote this site. What you may not do is present its output as medical advice or as your own clinical judgement, or republish the article library wholesale as your own. Conduct rules for both the site and the app are in section 11.
5. The open endpoints
/api/glp1-target returns the calculator's numbers as JSON. /api/foods returns the food database. /api/plan returns a PDF. All three are free, anonymous and rate limited to keep the site up.
You may use them, including in an AI assistant that cites us. Two conditions: attribute foodose.co, and carry the limitations with the numbers. A calorie target repeated without the caveat that it is educational and not medical advice is worse than no answer.
6. What we own, and what you own
The name, the wordmark, the calculation engine, the article library and the site copy are ours. The food database is ours and is free to use with attribution.
You own what you type. The calculator sends it to our server only to build your plan when you ask for one, and we keep none of it.
7. Accuracy
We work hard to be right. Every PubMed identifier on this site is checked against the original record before publication, and the calculator shows the arithmetic behind every number so you can check it yourself.
We still make mistakes. Nutrition values are drawn from public databases and vary by preparation. Research moves. If you find something wrong, tell us and we will fix it and say that we did.
8. No warranty
The site is provided as it is, without warranty of any kind. We do not promise it will be available, uninterrupted, or free of error.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from your use of the site. Because the site is free and we hold no payment from you, our aggregate liability is limited to a nominal amount.
Nothing here limits liability for anything that cannot lawfully be limited, including death or personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud.
10. The iPhone app
Free, with a paid tier. The app is free to download and free to keep using, with a daily limit on coach messages and without the daily meal plan. A subscription lifts both. The full arrangement, including the trial, renewal, cancellation and refunds, is in the subscription terms.
Apple is the merchant. Apple takes the payment, shows you the price before you confirm, and renews until you cancel. We cannot cancel or refund for you.
Your licence. You get a personal, non-transferable right to use the app on devices you control. Do not share or sell an account, decompile the app, or use it to build a competing product.
Your account and your data. Your logs, your coach history and your settings are yours. You, then Delete All My Data, removes the account and its rows. You may also ask us for a copy of your data or for deletion by writing to ceo@foodose.co; we act on either within 30 days. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription, and cancelling does not delete your data: they are separate, deliberate acts.
11. Acceptable use
On the website or in the app, please do not:
- Reverse engineer, decompile or try to extract source code.
- Scrape the app, the site or the endpoints in a way that degrades them for others.
- Use Foodose for clinical decision-making, clinical research or any regulated medical purpose.
- Share or sell access to an account.
- Impersonate anyone, or upload another person's personal information.
- Upload content that is unlawful, harassing, defamatory or infringing.
- Ask the coach to produce content that is illegal, sexual outside a health context, or designed to harm you or anyone else.
- Interfere with, disrupt or overload the service.
We may suspend or end an account that breaks this section, with notice where that is practical.
12. The coach
The coach is a large language model, currently OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini class, given a summary of your own data so its answers fit your day. It is not a clinician. It can be wrong, incomplete or out of date, and anything it says about doses, side effects or medical conditions must be confirmed with your prescriber or pharmacist before you act on it. See the medical disclaimer.
You are responsible for what you type into it. Do not share information about other identifiable people without their permission.
13. Third parties
Foodose relies on other companies, each with their own terms: Apple for the App Store and payment, Supabase for the database, OpenAI for the coach, Vercel for hosting, Google and Apple for sign-in, and Namecheap for email forwarding. We are responsible for how we use them; they are responsible for their own services. Where their terms apply to you directly, such as Apple's App Store terms for a purchase, those apply alongside these.
14. Indemnity
You agree to defend and indemnify us against any third-party claim arising from your misuse of Foodose, your breach of these terms, or your violation of someone else's rights.
15. Termination
You can stop using Foodose at any time. We may suspend or end an account that breaks these terms, where the law requires it, or if we stop operating the service. If we end it for our own convenience we will give reasonable notice and a way to take your data with you.
Sections that should outlive the relationship survive it: ownership, disclaimer, limitation of liability, indemnity and governing law.
16. Changes
We may change these terms. The date at the top will change with them, and continuing to use the site means accepting the new version.
17. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict of law rules.
