"nutrition calculator"

I have a dog with allergies who has become much healthier on homemade food. Thank you, Ayla, for your advice and inspiration 😊 But I am still unsure whether my dog is getting what he needs, and it would be great to have a feature – a kind of nutrition calculator where I could enter my own recipes, have them evaluated and get suggestions for improvements. Many of the recipes here also contain allergens that my dog must avoid, and such a feature could also make it easy and safe to adjust the recipes.

  • Thank you for your kind feedback! 🫢🏼 Interesting thought – we've actually considered that ourselves! It's quite technically demanding to implement such a feature, but we like challenges 😎 In the meantime, my goal is to build up a large enough library of recipes so that everyone can find something that suits them – even dogs with allergies or special needs. The recipes that are available now are in many ways a starting point, a kind of "basic package". More will be added, and eventually you will also see more varieties without common allergens. Thanks again for your input, and please let me know specifically what your dog cannot tolerate, and I will do my best to create something that suits them! 🐾
  • Hello, thank you for your quick and pleasant response 😊 My dog cannot tolerate chicken, eggs, or salmon. I look forward to following the development of the library 😊
  • Hi, I'm jumping in on this one. The work you've done is fantastic. All credit to you and the team! 🀩 Something I've been thinking about that would be a clever feature is the option to start with a recipe, but say that I want to replace chicken with turkey, lamb, etc., and then have the correct amounts of minerals and vitamins calculated in relation to the protein source. Or that you could tell Saga that you want to use this as a protein source, this is what the dog gets from fruit and vegetables, and then give guidance on the amount of minerals and vitamins you need to add. That would be the dream situation :D
  • Thank you so much – that's very nice to hear! 🫢🏼 And yes, what you're describing is actually something we also think would be really cool to achieve. Being able to change the protein source in a recipe and have all the vitamins and minerals adjusted automatically, or give Saga guidance on what to use and get back what's missing – that's really the core of what we want to build in the long term. It's technically challenging, but we see a lot of potential in making this smarter and more flexible over time. Feedback like this is very useful to us as we think about further development and priorities 🀩 So thank you for your feedback – we really appreciate it πŸ™
