# Functional Beverage Nutrition Calculator AI Agent Connect

> Functional Beverage Nutrition Calculator MCP handles the heavy lifting of beverage formulation math. It calculates nutritional profiles for single servings or entire batches, applies specific USA and Europe labeling rounding rules, and checks your recipes against nutrient limits to ensure they meet your target specs.

## Description

Formulating functional drinks requires constant math to ensure nutritional claims match the actual recipe. This MCP gives your AI client the ability to act as a food scientist. Instead of manually calculating calories or sugar content, you can feed your ingredient list to your agent and get instant, accurate profiles for both a single serving and the full container. 

Beyond basic math, this tool manages the tedious parts of regulatory compliance. It uses specific rounding logic required for USA and European labeling, so you don't have to memorize those rules. You can also set nutrient thresholds to catch formulations that exceed your targets, such as sugar or caffeine limits. When you need to verify functional claims, the MCP can isolate and summarize active ingredients like vitamins or caffeine from the broader nutritional data. It turns your AI into a precise tool for recipe validation and label preparation.

## Tools

### calculate_nutrition_profile
This tool computes the total nutritional content for a single serving and the entire container. It aggregates data like calories and sugar based on your ingredient inputs.

### summarize_active_ingredients
This tool extracts and aggregates functional active ingredients from a nutrition profile. It helps you isolate specific components like caffeine or vitamins for claim verification.

### validate_against_limits
This tool checks if a nutrition profile exceeds the specific nutrient thresholds you define. It flags any formulations that go over your set limits.

### apply_label_rounding
This tool adjusts raw nutritional values to meet USA or Europe labeling standards. It ensures your numbers follow the specific rounding rules required for packaging.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the nutrition for a 500ml bottle with a 250ml serving size using these ingredients: [{"name": "water", "volume": 500}, {"name": "sugar", "mass": 20}]
```

**Response:** 
```
The 250ml serving contains 20 calories and 5g of sugar. The full 500ml container contains 40 calories and 10g of sugar.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Check if this profile is compliant with a sugar limit of 5g per serving: {"sugar": 6}
```

**Response:** 
```
The profile is non-compliant. The sugar content (6g) exceeds the limit of 5g.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Summarize the active ingredients from this profile: {"active_ingredients": [{"name": "caffeine", "amount": 50}]}
```

**Response:** 
```
The active ingredients are: caffeine (50mg).
```

## Capabilities

### Nutritional Aggregation
Your agent calculates total nutrients for both individual servings and full product volumes.

### Regulatory Rounding
The AI applies USA and Europe specific rounding rules to raw nutritional data.

### Threshold Validation
Your agent checks formulations against user-defined nutrient limits to ensure compliance.

### Active Ingredient Isolation
The tool pulls specific functional components out of a larger nutritional profile.

## Use Cases

### Recipe Scaling
Calculate how nutritional values change when moving from a single serving to a full container volume.

### Compliance Checking
Verify that a new energy drink formulation stays under a specific caffeine or sugar threshold.

### Label Preparation
Convert raw ingredient data into rounded values that follow legal labeling standards.

### Claim Verification
Summarize specific vitamins or minerals to ensure they meet the requirements for functional claims.

## Benefits

- Reduces manual calculation errors in beverage recipes.
- Automates regional labeling rounding for USA and Europe.
- Flags nutrient limit violations immediately during formulation.
- Isolates functional ingredients for quick claim verification.

## How It Works

Connect your AI client to Vinkius and start running nutritional math immediately.

1. Connect your preferred MCP-compatible client like Claude or Cursor to Vinkius.
2. Provide your ingredient list or nutritional profile to your AI agent.
3. Ask the agent to perform specific tasks like calculating totals or applying rounding.
4. The agent uses the MCP tools to process the data and return precise results.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this MCP handle different regional labeling rules?**
The apply_label_rounding tool specifically handles the different rounding requirements for the USA and Europe.

**Can I check if my drink exceeds a specific sugar limit?**
Yes, you can use the validate_against_limits tool to check your nutrition profile against any threshold you define.

**Does this work with Claude or Cursor?**
Yes, this MCP is ready to use with any MCP-compatible client including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

**Can it calculate nutrition for a whole bottle at once?**
Yes, the calculate_nutrition_profile tool provides data for both a single serving and the entire container.

**How do I use this for functional ingredient claims?**
You can use the summarize_active_ingredients tool to isolate functional components like caffeine or vitamins from your profile.

**How do I calculate the nutrition for a whole bottle?**
You can use the `calculate_nutrition_profile` tool by providing both the `servingSize` and the `containerSize`. The tool will return both serving-level and container-level nutritional data.

**Can I check if my drink meets sugar limits?**
Yes, use the `validate_against_limits` tool. You provide the nutrition profile and a map of your maximum allowed nutrient values to receive a compliance report.

**Does this support European labeling standards?**
Yes, the `apply_label_rounding` tool supports both USA and Europe regulatory rounding rules.
