How to Use Arogilens
A quick guide to getting accurate meal scans, reading your Meal Insight Score, and using Healthy Swaps to make realistic improvements day by day.
1. Capture your meal
Start with whatever is easiest: plate photo, nutrition label, barcode, or short text description. Arogilens converts everything into the same nutrition view. Clear, well-lit images give the most accurate results.
2. Review your Meal Insight Score
The Nutrition Analysis shows estimated calories and macro bars for protein, carbs, and fat. The Meal Insight Score (0–100) helps you read the meal at a glance:
- • 90–100: Excellent balance & protein density
- • 75–90: Good overall choice
- • 60–75: Okay — enjoy in moderation
- • 40–60: More of a treat — balance it out later
- • < 40: Low protein density / high fat for the calories
Colored macro bars match the Food Breakdown cards so protein, carbs, and fat are visually consistent across the page.
3. Explore Healthy Swaps
After scoring your meal, tap “See healthier swaps”. For many meals, Arogilens suggests alternatives that keep the taste and culture similar while improving the nutrition profile — for example, grilled instead of deep-fried, or a smarter drink or sauce choice.
Swaps are suggestions, not strict rules. Use them as ideas for lighter or higher-protein options that still feel like your food.
4. Watch your daily balance
As Arogilens grows, you'll be able to see your daily and weekly patterns: are you usually low on protein, heavy on sugary snacks, or loading most calories into a single meal? Small, repeatable improvements across days matter more than chasing one perfect plate.
How Healthy Swaps works
🧠Premium Coach Summary
A short, friendly explanation of how the suggested changes improve the meal — for example, swapping fried for grilled or adding fiber while keeping the same overall vibe.
💰Potential Savings
An estimate of what you gain by switching: fewer calories, less fat or sodium, and sometimes more protein. Numbers are based on typical foods and serving sizes — helpful guides, not exact lab measurements.
🍽️Better Alternatives
Item-by-item suggestions like fried chicken → grilled chicken or fries → baked sweet potato wedges. Each line includes a short reason so you know why it helps.
Sometimes you'll see a friendly message instead of swaps — for example, when a product is already fairly balanced or too simple to swap. In those cases, the coach explains why, so you don't have to guess.

Troubleshooting & tips
- • Retake photos if the plate is very far away, cropped, or in deep shadow — the clearer the food, the better the estimate.
- • Use text logging when eating mixed dishes that are hard to see (curries, stews, layered bowls).
- • For packaged foods, scan the nutrition label when possible — it often gives cleaner results than only the front of pack.
- • Revisit your Meal Insights later to spot patterns, not just judge single meals.
- • If something feels off, treat the numbers as guidance, not exact medical advice. Always follow your doctor's recommendations.
