Omega-3 Calculator
Find your daily recommended omega-3 fatty acid intake based on sex. Use it to assess whether your diet or supplementation meets the adequate intake (AI) for heart and brain health.
Daily Omega-3 Requirement
1.6 grams
At 1.6 g/day this matches the NIH Adequate Intake for adult men, roughly 45% higher than the female target of 1.1 g. Two oily-fish meals per week typically meets it.
Thresholds reflect the U.S. NIH/Institute of Medicine Adequate Intake (AI) for ALA omega-3: 1.6 g/day for men and 1.1 g/day for women.
Macro Calculator
Split your daily calorie target into grams of protein, carbohydrates, and fat tuned to your goal β fat loss, muscle gain, maintenance, or keto. The output is the macro target sports-nutrition coaches and bodybuilders use to plan meals and track adherence with apps like MyFitnessPal or Cronometer.
