DISHCAL PH · FORMERLY PLATOIQ · BY DR. JOHNBOE
You don’t have just one condition. Your app shouldn’t either.
Most nutrition apps are built for someone managing one thing. Real patients rarely have just one. It’s diabetes and hypertension. Kidney concerns and a heart history.
DishCal PH is the first Filipino nutrition app built to handle all of it at once — because your diabetes plan and your kidney plan have to work together, not against each other.
No payment details. Nothing is charged automatically.
The hardest part of a chronic condition usually isn’t knowing the rules. It’s standing over your plate, unsure whether this pinakbet fits today.
DishCal PH removes the guesswork — dish by dish.
Every condition, together
One picture, not four
Pick every condition that applies — not just one. Your home screen merges them into a single set of limits: sodium and added sugar drawn from both diabetes and hypertension, with the stricter number winning. No mental arithmetic, no conflicting advice.
Log it how you like
Snap it. Say it. Done.
Take a photo of your plate and DishCal PH estimates the nutrition for you. Or just describe it — out loud or typed — which is easier for combo meals a photo won’t catch, like a snack plus a drink.
Real Filipino food
Sinigang na isda, and why it works for you
Every suggestion is tagged with exactly why it suits you — flagged for diabetes and hypertension both, in this case. Halal, vegetarian and allergy needs are respected automatically.
Patterns, not memory
See what’s actually working
A seven-day view of your calories alongside your daily targets and BMR/TDEE, so trends are visible at a glance instead of buried in a rushed fifteen-minute appointment.
Medications too
One app, not two
Log your daily medications with reminders, so nutrition and meds live in the same place instead of two apps you have to juggle.
FOR YOUR NEXT CHECK-UP
It speaks your doctor’s language.
One tap turns weeks of logging into a clean summary — nutrition trends, medication adherence, days over your limits — ready to print, save, or send to your physician. No more trying to remember what you ate two weeks ago.
And it speaks your language too: English or Filipino, whichever feels more natural.
Genuinely simple
- 1Answer a few quick questions about your conditions and basic details.
- 2Snap, speak, or type your meals as you eat them.
- 3Check your dashboard to see how you’re tracking.
- 4Bring your summary to your next doctor’s visit.
No spreadsheets. No manual calorie math. No separate app for food and medications.
WHERE IT’S AT RIGHT NOW
To be upfront: DishCal PH is still a working prototype, being tested with real patients before a full public launch. The screens above are the real app, not mockups — and if something feels off when you try it, that feedback genuinely shapes what gets fixed before more people rely on it.
If you’re juggling more than one condition — which, honestly, describes a lot of us — give DishCal PH a try.
DishCal PH. Eat smart. Live well.
