Can I build my own equivalence groups?

Yes. Create custom groups such as whole or skim dairy, gluten-free grains, fruits, proteins and fats, then reuse them in future plans.

Does Almendra calculate exchanges automatically?

Yes. Assign portions per meal time and the system keeps macros and micros balanced even when the client swaps a food within its group.

Can clients swap foods without breaking the plan?

Yes. The client app shows available equivalences for each portion; changes are logged and visible in your dashboard.

Can I export the plan as a branded PDF?

Yes. Every plan exports with your logo, colors and notes, by meal time or as a summary table.

Does this work if I was trained on a different exchange system?

Yes. Start from predefined groups and adjust them to your curriculum without losing calculations.
