Bring patterns, not guesses
Record timing, severity and movement alongside meals or supplements. New, persistent or worsening pain needs clinical attention.
Track: stiffness + movement
Low energy
Check how the whole meal lands
Food is one part of energy. Notice meal timing, sleep and symptoms together rather than assigning the result to one nutrient.
Track: energy 1–3 hours later
Hot flashes
Track your personal context
Meals and routines can feel different from day to day. Use this as an observation prompt, not as evidence that a food or supplement treats hot flashes.

Add the missing context
Sleep, stress, meals and symptoms overlap. Seeing them together is more useful than crediting one ingredient.
