How BodyPal calculates your calories

BodyPal estimates calories and macros from a photo using AI image recognition: it identifies each food, estimates the portion, and matches it to nutrition data. Your daily calorie target and calorie deficit are calculated with the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, aligned with NIH and NHLBI weight-loss guidance and WHO healthy-diet recommendations. Photo estimates are approximate — you can edit any value with a tap.
