Macro Tracking Feature

Overview

The Macro Tracking feature allows you to monitor and adjust your intake of macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates, and fats). This feature also helps you set specific targets based on your health and fitness goals, such as weight loss or muscle gain, by providing daily tracking of macros and calories. As you log your meals, the macros from those items are automatically tracked.

Please note that the Macro Tracking feature tracks the macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates, and fats) and is different from micronutrient tracking (vitamins and minerals). The Macro Tracking feature only tracks macronutrients.
