Food to MindFrequently asked questions
Does Food to Mind count calories?
No. It has no calorie targets, no macros, no portion scores, and no food grades. The app asks for a photo and, later, for an honest read on how your head feels. Nothing on your plate is scored.
Do I need an account?
No. A random identifier created on your device can hold the journal. You may sign in with Apple, Google, or an emailed one-time code if you want the journal and Premium access to follow you to another device; Clerk handles that optional account.
What happens to my meal photos?
Only photos you deliberately choose are uploaded. They are kept with the meal so your journal stays complete, and they are never used for anything but your own forecasts. Your check-in scores and a random device identifier are stored on our API alongside them — the Privacy Policy lists all three. Deleting a single meal deletes its photo too, and “Reset local data” clears the journal from your device and our API.
How long after eating should I check in?
About ninety minutes. Late enough that a meal has had time to land, early enough that the rest of the day has not buried the memory. The reminder is a local notification on your phone, and a late check-in is still a useful one.
How accurate is the forecast?
It is an estimate made from a photograph, and it can be wrong — the Terms say as much. The part of the journal you can rely on is your own check-in: what you ate, and what you said about your mood, focus, and clarity afterwards.
Can it tell me which food causes my brain fog?
No. It records that a meal and a later self-report occurred together, which is an association, not a cause. Sleep, workload, stress, caffeine, screen time, and when you ate all sit in between, and none of them are in the log. What you get is a list of your own meals beside your own clearest and foggiest hours. The interpretation stays yours.
Is this a mental-health, ADHD, or medical app?
No. Food to Mind is a general wellness journal, not a medical device and not a mental-health service. It does not diagnose, treat, prevent, or manage ADHD, anxiety, depression, or any other condition. If you are struggling with your focus or your mood, please talk to a qualified professional.
When do personal insights appear?
Once you have completed three or more check-ins. From then on a forecast draws on more of your own history. That is the whole meaning of “personal” here — it is not a claim that a pattern has been established or a cause found.
Does Food to Mind cost anything?
Meal analysis, later check-ins, and reminders are part of Food to Mind Premium, an optional subscription. Pricing is not settled and there is no store listing yet, so there is nothing to buy today. This answer will carry the exact terms once the app is submitted.
Is Food to Mind available to download?
Not yet. The app is still in development, with no App Store listing, no public beta, and no waitlist. There is deliberately nothing on this site to click. We will update this answer when there is.
Does this website use cookies or analytics?
No. No cookies, no analytics, no advertising or tracking scripts. The only script served on any page here is the structured data describing the page itself.
Is any of this medical advice?
No. Food to Mind is a general wellness journal. The forecasts are estimates; the check-ins are your own words about your own day. None of it is medical advice, a diagnosis, or a treatment plan. Speak to a doctor or a dietitian about anything concerning your health.
