TamyoNot medical advice
Last updated 2026-11-02
Tamyo is a game-like companion for everyday habits. Please read this once.
What Tamyo does
- Shows what you log (food, water, workouts, weigh-ins) next to public nutrient references, such as the National Academies' Dietary Reference Intakes via Health Canada.
- Draws a weight trend that smooths day-to-day swings, so a water-weight wobble does not look like a trend.
- Estimates your energy needs from what you log. That estimate is shown as a range that narrows as you log more. It is a calibration estimate, not a measurement.
- Rewards showing up (logging, resting, water, movement) with levels, streaks and looks.
What Tamyo does not do
- It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any condition.
- It does not interpret lab results or give medical advice.
- It is not a medical device, and its numbers are not clinical measurements.
- It does not replace a doctor, dietitian or other qualified professional.
- The "burn" or energy numbers, one-rep-max figures and levels are game scales and estimates, not medical readings.
When to see a doctor
Talk to a doctor or other qualified professional before changing how you eat or exercise, especially if you are pregnant or nursing, have a medical condition, take medication, or have a history of disordered eating. Seek care if you notice symptoms that worry you. Nothing in Tamyo should delay or replace that.
If your log shows you eating very little, the app's coach speaks more gently and suggests eating enough and talking to a doctor. It is a reminder, not a judgment.
If you need help right now
In the United States, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), or call 911 for an emergency. Outside the US, contact your local emergency number or a local crisis service. If you are struggling with food or body image, the National Alliance for Eating Disorders helpline and your doctor can help.
