Metabolic Low Carb Calculator (https://metaboliclowcarb.com) is an independent educational site for people exploring low-carb eating, keto, intermittent fasting, and metabolic health. We build free browser-based calculators, practical guides, and recipes with estimated net carbs — so you can check a label, set a daily target, or plan a meal without creating an account.

Who runs this site

The site is independently published, and its content is written and maintained by the Metabolic Low Carb Editorial Team. The team is not a clinic. Content is not currently medically reviewed unless an individual page explicitly says otherwise, and nothing on the site is a personal treatment plan. Read our Editorial Policy for our authorship, sourcing, correction, and advertising standards.

What we publish

Calculators — net carbs from nutrition labels, daily macros (keto, insulin-resistance-friendly, moderate low carb, TDEE-based weight loss), and fasting timers with educational windows.
Guides — step-by-step explainers on labels, breaking a fast, PCOS and low carb, electrolytes, and related topics.
Recipes — simple low-carb meals with estimated net carbs and protein per serving, organized by breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.

How we build content

Calculator formulas are documented in-page (for example Mifflin-St Jeor for calorie estimates and standard US label net-carb math). Recipe net-carb and protein values are working estimates, not laboratory analyses — always verify packaged foods with our net carb calculator. Our Methodology documents the formulas, fixed assumptions, fasting-timer behavior, and recipe limitations. We prioritize usefulness over hype: no miracle claims, no “cure” language, and clear medical disclaimers.

Editorial standards

We aim for original explanations, worked examples, and internal links between tools, recipes, and guides so you can move from a number on a label to a meal idea. We do not invent clinical studies. When evidence is mixed or individual results vary, we say so. Our Editorial Policy explains how we choose sources and handle higher-risk health claims. Corrections and suggestions are welcome via Contact.

Advertising

We may display ads (including Google AdSense when the site is approved) to keep tools free. Ads do not change calculator math or control editorial conclusions. See our Editorial Policy, Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
