Question 1

How does 8 Healthy work?

Accepted Answer

8 Healthy is an app that creates weekly meal plans from a curated recipe library, not by inventing recipes. Tell us about your household: who eats, diets, allergies, goals, and how much time you have to cook. As a meal planner based on dietary needs and a meal planner based on allergies, we only show meals that fit those limits. Swap any meal for another that still fits, then get a grocery list ready to shop.

Question 2

Will it work with our dietary needs and allergies?

Accepted Answer

Yes. 8 Healthy is a meal planner for allergies and dietary restrictions. Set plant-based, gluten-free, dairy-free, low-carb, nut-free and other major limits during onboarding. As an allergy friendly meal planner, we only show allergy friendly meal plans and allergy friendly recipes we can prove fit those limits. If we cannot tell, we do not show the meal. Meal planning for allergies still means people with a severe allergy must read ingredient labels themselves.

Question 3

Is it a meal planner for special diets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use it as a dietary restriction meal planner or personalised diet meal planner for the household: meal plans for dietary restrictions and dietary needs you set once, then reuse every week. It is not medical diet coaching.

Question 4

Can it plan for my whole household?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It is a meal planner for the whole household. Add as many people as you like, each with their own goals and preferences. We balance easy healthy meals across the household, scale ingredients, and skip foods anyone will not eat.

Question 5

Where do the healthy meal ideas come from?

Accepted Answer

From our curated recipe library: healthy meal plan ideas and healthy dinner ideas that already fit the profiles you set. We do not invent new recipes on the fly. Nutrition figures are guidance, not medical advice.

Question 6

Does it include nutrition information?

Accepted Answer

Yes. 8 Healthy works as a nutrition meal planner and meal planner with nutrition information: Premium estimates nutrient values from each recipe's ingredients and portions. Think of it as a personalised nutrition planner and nutrition insights app for everyday tracking, not a clinical nutrition planning app. Figures are guidance, not medical advice. For clinical needs, talk to a registered dietitian.

Question 7

How does Premium detect the micronutrients in a meal?

Accepted Answer

Nutrient values are estimated from each recipe's ingredients and portions for meal planner with nutrition tracking style insights. They support personalised healthy eating day to day, not medical advice.

Question 8

How do grocery lists work?

Accepted Answer

8 Healthy is a meal planner with grocery list built in. After your weekly meal plan is ready, meal planning and grocery list come together as a full shopping list of what you need: a meal plan and shopping list you can take to any store. We will not promise a specific retailer until that integration ships.
