THE PLAIT GUIDE
Protein targets: what the strain score does and does not change
Plait does not use a high strain score as a stand-alone prescription for a fixed protein dose. Your plan’s protein target is calculated with the other daily targets and distributed across meals.
Read the daily target
Nutrition Goal shows protein, carbohydrate and fat alongside the calorie target. Changing a goal or profile applies to the next generated plan. The app checks that macro energy and daily calories correspond, including calories assigned to fat and carbohydrates.
Review the actual portions
A meal’s protein comes from its listed food weights. New meal descriptions are rebuilt from those weights after fitting, so the description and nutrition totals stay together. A replacement must use a different ingredient combination and still respect your saved restrictions and meal target.
Use the right tool for specialized needs
Strain, readiness and recovery are contextual wearable signals. Plait does not assess protein deficiencies or clinical nutrition needs, and a wearable score cannot provide that assessment. If you need a tailored sports or medical nutrition prescription, bring your real schedule and food history to a qualified professional rather than relying on a strain-to-protein table.
