What does a “Healthy,” “Neutral,” or “Unhealthy” Meal Mean?

Lark’s feedback on a logged meal may include a designation of that meal as “healthy,” “unhealthy,” or “neutral.” These categories are based on the foods that make up the meal.

• A “healthy” meal has all “healthy” foods or all “healthy” and “neutral” foods.
• A “neutral” meal has all “neutral” foods.
• A “mixed” meal has at least one “healthy” food and at least one “unhealthy” food.
• A “unhealthy” meal has all “unhealthy” foods or all “unhealthy” and “neutral” foods.

The purpose of this categorization is to put the focus on diet quality instead of strict calorie and nutrient counting.
