CLEAR ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this quiz measure?
It estimates a nutrition response pattern based on self-reported energy, appetite, cravings, stress response, sleep, and reactions to different meals. Results are provided as a general metabolic style with practical food-balance suggestions.
Is this a medical or diagnostic tool?
No. It is a non-medical self-assessment and does not diagnose disease or replace clinical testing.
How long does it take, and how many items are included?
Estimated time is about 10 minutes. The quiz includes 70 questions.
How should responses be selected if more than one option seems accurate?
Select the option that fits most of the time over the past several weeks. If uncertain, choose the closest match rather than leaving items blank.
How should results be used, and when is professional advice needed?
Use the results to guide short, low-risk experiments with meal balance and daily habits while monitoring how the body responds. Seek medical advice for persistent symptoms, eating disorder concerns, pregnancy, or conditions requiring dietary management.
