How This is Calculated
Per-serving nutrition = total ingredient nutrition ÷ number of servings. Total calories = Σ(ingredient calories). Macros summed separately: protein (4 kcal/g), carbs (4 kcal/g), fat (9 kcal/g). Nutrient values should be sourced from the USDA FoodData Central database for accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Food packaging labels are most accurate. Online databases like the USDA FoodData Central or MyFitnessPal provide data for raw and cooked ingredients.
Be consistent within a recipe. Cooking changes the weight of foods (especially meat and vegetables), so if you measure cooked weights, use cooked nutritional data.
The current tool processes recipes in-session only. For saved recipes, consider using a dedicated nutrition tracking application.
