Macro Tracking for Nutrition Professionals

Whether your clients are bodybuilders tracking every gram of protein, athletes optimizing performance nutrition, or everyday people trying to hit their fitness goals, macro tracking is essential. Foodzilla gives nutrition professionals powerful tools to set, track, and optimize macronutrient targets for any client—with automation that saves hours of manual calculation.

Precision Macro Calculations

Stop spending hours calculating macros by hand. Foodzilla automatically calculates optimal protein, carbohydrate, and fat targets based on your client's goals, activity level, and body composition. Choose from proven formulas or set custom ratios that match your coaching methodology.

Key Features:

1. 1. Goal-Based Calculations: Automatically calculate macros for fat loss, muscle gain, maintenance, or athletic performance. The system adjusts targets based on activity level and training intensity.

2. 2. Multiple Calculation Methods: Use popular formulas like Mifflin-St Jeor, Harris-Benedict, or Katch-McArdle. Or input custom targets if you prefer your own calculation approach.

3. 3. Flexible Macro Ratios: Set macros as percentages (40/30/30) or absolute grams (180g protein, 250g carbs, 70g fat). Adjust for different diet approaches like keto, high-protein, or balanced macros.

4. 4. Per-Meal Distribution: Control how macros are distributed across meals. Front-load protein at breakfast, add carbs around workouts, or create any distribution pattern that suits your client's schedule.

 

Automated Macro-Based Meal Plans

Once you've set macro targets, Foodzilla generates complete meal plans that hit those numbers precisely. No more trial and error with recipes and portions. The automated meal plan generator selects recipes and adjusts portions to match your client's exact macro requirements.
