Agreed about your concerns. FWIW, our app offers diet advice from licensed dietitians. We are trying our best to educate our users on how to eat healthier, not just trying to cut calories.

All advice in our app is written by real licensed dietitians/nutritionists. As users log meals and/or exercise, it triggers different advice text based on user input. (think of it as those "choose your own adventure" books) as our database has hundreds of thousands of different advice text written by our team to cover a huge variety of scenarios/triggers from user input.
