Food pattern checks

Diet calculators for comparing the way you actually eat.

Use these tools to look at eating patterns such as Mediterranean, Nordic, DASH, MIND, Blue Zones, FODMAP, Paleo and Okinawa-style meals. The goal is not to label your diet as “good” or “bad”; it is to make the pattern easier to see.

Health note: These pages are educational food-pattern tools. They do not diagnose, treat, prescribe, or replace a clinician, registered dietitian, or condition-specific nutrition plan.

What these calculators are good for

Seeing which foods drive your score up or down.Diagnosing a disease, treating symptoms, or replacing medical advice.
Making a grocery list or a simple meal-pattern checklist.Strict calorie targets, medication decisions, or condition-specific meal plans.
Comparing one eating pattern with another before you make changes.Claims that one diet is right for everyone.

A practical way to use the result

Run the calculator once with your current habits. Then change only one or two answers and see what would improve the result. That small comparison is often more useful than chasing a perfect score.

For example, a person might notice that adding legumes twice a week, replacing one refined grain, or reducing one processed-food habit changes the pattern more than expected. Treat the result as a planning note, not a medical judgment.
