Metabolic Health, decoded
Go beyond weight. Metabolic health made simple.
Weight and BMI offer only a partial view of your health. Research confirms that where your body stores weight, not just how much, is a far better predictor of long-term health outcomes. PlateSage gives you that fuller picture.
PlateSage brings together how you eat, move, and measure your body into one clear metric—the Body Balance Score—so you can see your metabolic health more completely, without expensive equipment or guesswork.
Why PlateSage
• One clear view, plus the "why." An at-a-glance daily sense of how meals, movement, and metabolic health are trending.
• More than the scale. Body Balance looks at body shape and weight distribution, not just weight or BMI, so it better reflects overall health across different body types.
• No expensive equipment needed. Get a fuller picture of your metabolic health with simple measurements you can take at home.
• Progress over perfection. Focus on consistency, micro-habits, and momentum—not crash diets or unsustainable routines.
• Built for a calm, positive relationship with food. No crash diets. No shame. No guilt—just healthy habits that last, on your own terms.
How the Body Balance Score works
The Body Balance Score combines five research-validated inputs—physical activity, waist-to-height ratio, waist-to-hip ratio, body roundness index, and meal quality—into a single 0–100 metric. Each component is weighted based on its documented impact on long-term health outcomes.
Built on peer-reviewed research demonstrating that waist-based measures outperform BMI in understanding health.
