Calofy AI calorie guides use practical serving-size estimates for everyday tracking. We keep the answer visible in text, include the macro table on the page, and mark up the same visible facts with structured data so search engines and AI answer systems can understand the page without relying on hidden content.
For packaged or weighed foods, use the nutrition label or weighed portion when available. For home-cooked and restaurant foods, use the estimate as a starting point and adjust for visible oil, butter, sauces, toppings, and portion size.
Generic food references are checked against public nutrition data where possible, including USDA FoodData Central. Mixed dishes and restaurant meals are presented as practical ranges because recipes and portions change.
