BPS Profile
Create your Biopsychosocial profile!
A BPS profile matches your age, sex, ethnic background, activity level, body composition, & conditions/disease (if applicable) to the nutrient targets, recipes and risk patterns that research links to people like you.
Four short questions, about two minutes. Skip ancestry if you prefer not to say.
How it works
Let's personalize your health profile!
Answer a few questions
Sex and year of birth give you your first value. Ancestry and health conditions add the next two.
Get matched to a profile
Your answers become a code like BPS 6.4.13 that places you among people with the same reference values.
See it across the site
The same profile feeds your daily targets, recipe matches, at-risk patterns and the literature behind them.
The profiles
Ten reference profiles, one for each age band and sex.
Each profile is a starting point. Your ancestry and conditions add the second and third values of your code.

Engine
Profile data optimization
How your answers tune the standard targets.
Your answers adjust the standard targets to fit your body. Sex, age, ancestry and conditions each move specific nutrients up or down.
- See which answer drives each change
- Add a measurement to refine a target
- Compare standard and profile-adjusted values
Daily targets
RDA values
Recommended intakes for your profile.
Daily nutrient targets for your profile, starting from the standard RDA and adjusted by the optimization step.
- Vitamins, minerals, protein and fiber
- Standard and adjusted values side by side
- A link to the full Daily Intake page
Meals
Recipe recommendations
Recipes ranked by fit with your targets.
Recipes ranked by how well their nutrient and phytochemical content fits your profile targets.
- A match score for each recipe
- The nutrients that earn the match
- A link to the recipe pages
Patterns
At-risk correlations
Associations for profiles like yours. Not a diagnosis.
Population-level associations between profiles like yours and common nutritional risks.
- Which areas run higher or lower for your profile
- The measurements behind each association
- A link to the disease pages
Evidence
Literature
The studies behind each target and association.
The studies behind each target and association, graded by evidence tier.
- Primary sources with DOI links
- Evidence tier and study type
- Which target or association each source supports
Your answers are private: only you and Moringa's admins can see a saved profile. This isn't a diagnosis; talk to your doctor about your health.
