Editorial Policy & Nutrition Scoring Methodology
How we calculate daily energy expenditure, grade meal quality from 0 to 100, and review nutrition science on mewbite.tengrx.com.
1. Energy Expenditure & Mifflin-St Jeor Baseline
MewBite calculates resting energy expenditure using the validated Mifflin-St Jeor equation paired with physical activity multipliers and goal pace adjustments. Daily macro targets balance protein preservation (1.6–2.2 g/kg of target body weight), dietary fat minimums for hormonal health, and flexible carbohydrate allocation.
2. The 0–100 Nutrition Quality Score
Unlike punitive trackers that judge meals solely by raw calories, MewBite’s Nutrition Score (0–100) evaluates macro balance, protein density per 100 kcal, fiber contribution, and added sugar moderation. Scores of 80+ earn an Excellent rating, helping users optimize satiety and metabolic steadiness.
3. Behavioral Science & Companion Vitality
Research on habit adherence shows that punitive red warnings trigger logging abandonment. MewBite replaces guilt with positive reinforcement: logging meals, drinking water, and completing daily challenges restore Mew’s 9 vitality hearts and award MewCoins for the Companion Market.
4. Human Review, Citations & Medical Disclaimer
Every guide on mewbite.tengrx.com references peer-reviewed nutrition literature, USDA FoodData Central benchmarks, and clinical intermittent fasting research.
