Defaults stay editable
The dataset policy says generated targets are starting points and can be changed anytime by the user or guardian.
Editable nutrition defaults, explained
FamilyMacro uses WHO/FAO reference material as a source family for editable starting targets. The important product rule is simple: defaults help setup, but household profiles remain reviewable and changeable.
What this page proves
This public note exists so families can inspect the thinking behind FamilyMacro's default goal setup. It is a transparency page for a source map, not a nutrition plan.
Sources are recorded
Profile defaults are designed to keep source id, source version, reference sex, life stage, and assumptions visible to the product.
Households stay in control
FamilyMacro is built for shared meal tracking and profile coordination, not hidden or automatic health decisions.
Source family used by the dataset
The source list is intentionally small and explicit. Public links point to the source publisher, while FamilyMacro keeps the app language as reference defaults.

What it does not claim
FamilyMacro is a household nutrition tracker. It is not a child-health assessment tool, medical device, diagnosis tool, allergy-management system, or replacement for professional advice.
The useful promise is narrower and more practical: families can log shared meals, review estimates, keep separate profiles, and adjust goals when a default does not fit.
Not medical advice
Not a child growth monitor
Not an allergy assessment
