FoodFriction

FoodFriction is a mobile + web AI app that reduces “decision fatigue” around lifestyle medicine by turning your real constraints into a repeatable eating system. You set your goals (weight, A1C, LDL, blood pressure), budget, cooking tolerance, schedule, allergies, and cultural preferences. The app then generates a weekly plan built from a small library of highly repeatable meals, a grocery list optimized for minimal waste, and “fallback” options for when life blows up (airport, fast food, late meetings). It integrates with grocery delivery and can swap meals based on what’s on sale. The AI is used for constraint-solving and substitutions, not vague coaching. It tracks adherence with 10-second check-ins and shows the few behaviors that actually move biomarkers over time. It’s not therapy, not a diet community, and not another calorie counter.
