About this calculator
The calorie distribution calculator helps split your daily intake into meals during intermittent fasting windows. It divides your total calories by the chosen number of meals (e.g., lunch, dinner, snacks). Useful for 16:8 or 5:2 methods, ensuring balanced eating within the allowed time frame.
For example, 2000 calories split into three meals would suggest 666 calories each. The straightforward formula removes manual math. Best for planning meals before fasting to avoid overeating or under-eating during feeding periods.
Note that this tool doesn't account for nutrient distribution. Adjustments should match personal preferences and metabolic needs. Doesn't replace professional guidance for conditions like hypertension or diabetes.
