Protein on a GLP-1: keep a useful record
Use the app to record food and protein estimates, not to prescribe a target. Individual nutrition needs depend on health history, medications, goals, and other factors. A qualified clinician or registered dietitian should set or confirm an individualized target. Verify important food values against the package label or another authoritative source.
What a protein record can do
A dated food record can help you remember what you ate and compare your own entries across days. It cannot determine whether intake is medically adequate, diagnose a nutrition problem, or account for an individual condition the app does not know about.
Where the target should come from
Ask a qualified clinician or registered dietitian to set or confirm a target that fits your circumstances. Tell them about relevant health conditions, medications, current intake, and goals. Once a professional gives you a target, the app can store the number you enter and compare your logged estimates with it.
An app default, progress ring, or coaching sentence is not a nutrition prescription. Change the target only when you decide to or when a qualified professional advises you.
Record food data accurately
- Check the serving size. A database value is useful only when the logged amount matches what was consumed.
- Prefer the package label for packaged food. Barcode and database records can be missing, outdated, or entered by another contributor.
- Label estimates as estimates. Restaurant meals and home recipes may not have exact values.
- Correct mistakes. Update a serving or delete a duplicate so the record reflects what happened.
- Repeat only after review. A saved meal is a shortcut, not proof that the same amount was eaten again.
Understand food lookup
A food search sends the text you submit, and a barcode scan sends the barcode, through the GLP 100 lookup service to nutrition-data providers. The returned values are reference data, not a clinical evaluation. Review a result before saving it.
Keep movement separate from nutrition advice
GLP 100 can record activity that already occurred. It does not prescribe an exercise program or decide whether an activity is appropriate. Ask a qualified professional for individualized nutrition or movement guidance.
Track it without making it a job
Record at the level of detail that is useful and sustainable for you. An honest estimate or gap is better than invented precision. Review the record with a clinician or dietitian when you need an individualized conclusion. (See where nutrition fits in the broader record and the first-100-days recordkeeping roadmap.)
How GLP 100 helps
GLP 100 gives protein a front-row seat: a daily goal with a progress bar, barcode scanning and food search, one-tap repeats of your go-to meals, and a weekly "protein goal days" count. Tracker records are stored locally by default. Food lookup sends the barcode or search text you submit, and exports leave through a share action you start.
