# Protein & Fiber Meal Scaler MCP. AI Agent Connect

> Protein & Fiber Meal Scaler MCP handles the heavy lifting for nutritional arithmetic. It lets your AI client adjust ingredient weights to match specific serving counts or hit exact protein and fiber goals. Instead of guessing, you get mathematically accurate ingredient lists that maintain the original ratios of your recipes.

## Description

You can stop manually recalculating ingredient weights every time you want to change a meal plan. This MCP gives your AI agent the ability to perform precise nutritional scaling. If you have a recipe that's too low in protein or fiber, your agent can use it to adjust the ingredient amounts until the totals hit your specific targets. It keeps the original proportions intact so the food actually tastes the same. You can also use it to break down exactly how much each ingredient contributes to your daily totals or swap out an ingredient for something else without ruining the nutritional balance of the dish. It turns your AI client into a specialized nutritionist that understands mass, nutrient density, and dietary constraints.

## Tools

### get_nutrient_contributions
This tool breaks down a recipe to show how much protein and fiber each specific ingredient provides toward the total.

### scale_recipe_by_nutrient
This tool recalculates all ingredient quantities to reach a specific target for either protein or fiber.

### scale_recipe_by_servings
This tool adjusts the mass of every ingredient to match a new serving size while keeping the original proportions.

### suggest_substitutions
This tool finds alternative ingredients that keep the total mass and nutrient targets stable when you need to swap something out.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Scale this recipe for 4 servings: 200g Chicken (protein: 0.3, fiber: 0.0), 100g Rice (protein: 0.02, fiber: 0.03). Original servings: 2.
```

**Response:** 
```
To serve 4 people, use 400g of Chicken and 200g of Rice.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
I need 50g of protein. Scale this: 100g Tofu (protein: 0.08, fiber: 0.01), 50g Spinach (protein: 0.02, fiber: 0.02). Original servings: 1.
```

**Response:** 
```
To reach 50g of protein, the scaled ingredients are 500g of Tofu and 250g of Spinach.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the protein contribution of 100g Chicken (protein: 0.3) and 100g Broccoli (protein: 0.2) in this recipe?
```

**Response:** 
```
The Chicken contributes 60% of the total protein, and the Broccoli contributes 40%.
```

## Capabilities

### Nutrient Target Scaling
Your agent adjusts ingredient amounts to hit specific protein or fiber numbers.

### Serving Size Adjustment
The AI scales ingredient masses to match any number of people or portions.

### Ingredient Analysis
Your agent identifies which ingredients are driving your protein and fiber totals.

### Nutrient-Stable Swaps
The AI suggests ingredient replacements that don't mess up your macro targets.

## Use Cases

### Macro-Focused Meal Prep
Scale a standard recipe up or down to meet a specific daily protein goal.

### Dietary Restriction Swaps
Replace an ingredient with a substitute that keeps the fiber count steady.

### Portion Control
Convert a recipe designed for two people into a recipe for six people instantly.

### Nutrient Auditing
Check which ingredients in a meal are providing the most fiber.

## Benefits

- Maintains original recipe ratios during scaling.
- Hits exact protein and fiber targets through mass adjustment.
- Provides ingredient-level nutrient breakdowns.
- Enables ingredient swaps without losing nutritional accuracy.

## How It Works

Connect the MCP to your client and start sending recipe data for instant recalculation.

1. Connect your MCP-compatible client to Vinkius.
2. Provide your recipe data and nutrient values to your agent.
3. Tell your agent to scale by servings, nutrients, or suggest a swap.
4. Receive the updated ingredient list with precise masses.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this MCP handle recipe proportions?**
It uses the original ingredient ratios to ensure that when you scale a recipe, the flavor profile and composition remain consistent.

**Can I scale a recipe to hit a specific protein goal?**
Yes, the scale_recipe_by_nutrient tool allows your agent to adjust ingredient quantities to reach a specific protein or fiber target.

**What clients can I use this with?**
You can use this with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code.

**Does it help with ingredient substitutions?**
Yes, the suggest_substitutions tool helps find alternatives that keep the total mass and nutrient targets stable.

**Do I need to host this myself?**
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it is ready to use immediately after you connect.

**How do I scale a recipe for more people?**
Use the `scale_recipe_by_servings` tool. Provide the original ingredients, the original serving count, and your desired target servings.

**Can I target a specific amount of protein?**
Yes. The `scale_recipe_by_nutrient` tool allows you to specify a target amount for either protein or fiber to adjust the recipe quantities accordingly.

**How does the substitution tool work?**
The `suggest_substitutions` tool calculates a new ingredient mass to help maintain your target nutrient levels when swapping ingredients.
