Cada número de esta página (objetivos de calorías, reparto de macros y cualquier plan de comidas sugerido) se obtiene con fórmulas (Mifflin-St Jeor para la tasa metabólica basal, multiplicadores de actividad estándar) o, en los planes de comidas generados por IA, con un modelo de lenguaje que aplica esas mismas fórmulas. En las páginas de planes de comidas, la cifra de carbohidratos de cada comida se calcula por diferencia: calorías totales menos las calorías de proteínas y grasas, dividido entre 4. No se mide ni se estima por separado, así que léela como un balance aritmético y no como un análisis nutricional independiente del plato. Nada de esto es asesoramiento médico o nutricional individualizado, y nada ha sido revisado por un dietista titulado, un médico u otro profesional sanitario con licencia.
Pregunta a tu médico o a un dietista titulado qué es lo adecuado para ti antes de empezar una dieta nueva, sobre todo si estás embarazada o en periodo de lactancia, tienes una enfermedad diagnosticada, tomas medicación con receta o has tenido trastornos de la conducta alimentaria. Si tienes una enfermedad renal u otra afección médica, consulta con tu profesional sanitario antes de aumentar la proteína.
Mealyno nunca recomienda un objetivo de calorías por debajo de tu tasa metabólica basal (BMR) calculada, la energía mínima que necesita tu cuerpo en reposo completo. Incluso el ajuste de pérdida de peso más agresivo se limita a ese mínimo.
Las estimaciones de calorías y de BMR usan la ecuación de Mifflin-St Jeor (Mifflin MD, St Jeor ST, et al. Am J Clin Nutr. 1990).

Halushky are the signature dish of Poltava region. They are served on their own, in broth or with fried pork fat.
About this dish: Halushky (Poltava dumplings)
Poltava halushky are boiled dumplings of wheat flour and egg, eaten in Ukraine as a dish in their own right or dropped into a broth or soup. The dough is fairly thick; pieces are pinched off or cut with a spoon straight into boiling water, and once they float they are lifted out with a slotted spoon. The classic serving is with cracklings, fried onion and sour cream.
The dumplings themselves are light: by the table 100 g is about 126 kcal, and a 250 g portion with nothing added comes to roughly 315 kcal and 10 g of protein. The extras decide everything. Fifteen grams of cracklings is 105 kcal, 30 g of sour cream another 48, and each 10 g of butter 72. A plate with cracklings and sour cream therefore comes to about one and a half times the calories of one with only dill and onion.
To keep the dish lighter, fry the onion in a teaspoon of oil, use a little smoked meat or just herbs in place of cracklings, and swap the sour cream for thick yogurt. To add protein, mix some curd cheese into the dough or serve the dumplings in chicken broth with pieces of fillet. Portions are easy to control if you count the dumplings by the piece, since after boiling they come out roughly the same size.
