Medical Disclaimer

Please read this carefully before using foodcaloriecalculator.co.uk (the “Site”).

Information only, not professional advice

All content on this Site, calorie figures, nutrition data, calculators, guides and articles, is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not medical, nutritional, dietary or other professional advice, and it is not a substitute for consultation with a qualified healthcare professional. Nothing here is intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or health condition.

The Site is built and maintained by a web developer, not a healthcare or nutrition professional. Its value lies in transparently sourced data (see Methodology), not clinical expertise.

Figures are estimates

Calorie and nutrition figures are estimates based on published food-composition data and manufacturer information. Actual values vary with the specific food, brand, portion, ripeness, cooking method and preparation. You should not rely on these figures where precise nutritional accuracy is medically necessary.

Always consult a professional

Seek advice from your GP, a registered dietitian, or a registered nutritionist before changing your diet, starting a weight-management plan, or acting on information from this Site, particularly if you:

  • have a medical condition (including diabetes, heart, kidney or liver conditions, or any metabolic disorder);
  • are pregnant or breastfeeding;
  • are taking medication that interacts with diet;
  • are managing food allergies or intolerances (we do not provide allergen information; always check the product label);
  • have, or are recovering from, a disordered relationship with food or eating.

For trustworthy UK dietary guidance, see the NHS Eat Well pages and the British Dietetic Association food facts. Never disregard professional medical advice, or delay seeking it, because of something you read here.

A note on your wellbeing

Calorie tracking helps many people, but it isn’t right for everyone and can be unhelpful for those affected by eating disorders. If your relationship with food is causing you distress, please speak to your GP or a support organisation such as Beat (beateatingdisorders.org.uk). Your health matters more than any number.
