What This Site Is — and Isn't
This is a library of traditional food therapy — warm, cooked, whole meals matched to how you feel — checked against modern nutrition, plus a small set of free tools for tracking the habits that sit behind the plate: sleep, energy, recovery, and body weight. Every recipe page states what its cuisine does, what the evidence says, and when food is not the answer, because the tradition is only as useful as it is honest.
What this site is not: a medical service, a diagnostic tool, or a replacement for professional care. It has no medical backing, no products, and no agenda beyond the food. Serious or persistent symptoms get the red-flag treatment here — a direct statement that they belong with a professional, not with a congee. If you want the details of how everything here is sourced and checked, read the about page, the methodology, and the editorial policy — they are the small print the rest of the site is built on.

How to Get the Most From This Site
The honest version of this site's advice fits in three lines. Check the basics first — the sleep debt calculator is the single most useful page here, because most chronic tiredness is a schedule problem wearing a food problem's clothes, and no menu compensates for sleep that is not happening. Cook the recipes as the complete meals they are meant to be — warm, whole, eaten regularly — rather than as garnish. And match food to the pattern, not the fashion: the five pillars (sleep, energy, recovery, digestion, lungs) and the Food Finder exist precisely so you start from how you feel rather than from what is trending.
The deeper sections are where the real value sits: the guides explain the ideas behind the recipes, the condition pages cover common complaints with their foods and their red flags, and the ingredient library gives each food its own evidence report. Everything links to everything, deliberately — the site is designed to be walked, not just landed on.
Common Questions
Is this medical advice?
No. The site has no medical backing, the content is food and lifestyle information, and pages dealing with symptoms carry explicit red-flag lists pointing to professional care. Use it as a way of eating well; take diagnoses to a professional.
Is the traditional framework backed by science?
Part of it is, part of it is plausible but untested, and part is folk habit that does not survive scrutiny. The site does not smooth over that split — every ingredient page has a research section that states which parts are supported, which are not, and which simply have not been studied.
Do the tools cost anything?
No. Every tool on the site — sleep debt, energy score, recovery score, BMI, and the food finder — is free, works in your browser, and stores nothing about you. There are no accounts, no products, and no paywalled content.
Where should a beginner start?
Two places. Take the sleep debt check (thirty seconds), and read the beginner guide in the Guides section (twelve minutes). Between them they cover the two halves of most people’s problems: the schedule under the food, and the food under the schedule.
