SipWise is a private drink tracker that helps you understand what you drink — without squeezing everything into one score. Log water, coffee, tea, soft drinks, juice, alcohol and more, then see four separate views for fluids, caffeine, free sugar and alcohol. Each tells a different story. FOUR SEPARATE VIEWS • Fluids — track non-alcoholic drinks by volume against a goal you set or personalise • Caffeine — see your estimated daily intake and how much may still be in your system • Free Sugar — track added sugar and juice sugar against a general whole-diet reference • Alcohol — see standard drinks and alcohol-free days for awareness, never as a drinking “budget” LOG DRINKS IN SECONDS • Tap one of your usual drinks for quick logging • Hold to choose a different serving size • Choose from the built-in drink library • Create your own drinks • Backdate drinks to an earlier day With SipWise Plus, you can also describe what you drank by voice or take a photo of a drink or label. AI helps fill in the details for you to review before saving. TODAY, DIARY & INSIGHTS See what you have had today, review your drink history on a calendar, and compare recent patterns over time. SipWise keeps fluids, caffeine, free sugar and alcohol separate so you can notice useful patterns without reducing everything to a single health score. GENTLE REMINDERS Optional reminders can give you a water nudge when you are behind, without repeatedly interrupting your day.

Benefits of Fasting Intermittent fasting has grown popular for its potential health benefits. Here are some of the main benefits: • Weight Loss: Intermittent fasting creates a calorie deficit, helping reduce calorie intake and promote weight loss. • Better Metabolism: Fasting can improve insulin sensitivity, help regulate blood sugar levels and boost metabolism. • Cellular Repair: During fasting, the body triggers autophagy, clearing out damaged components and promoting cellular renewal. • Heart Health: Intermittent fasting helps improve several cardiovascular risk markers, including lowering blood pressure, reducing triglycerides and improving cholesterol levels. • Brain Health: Studies suggest intermittent fasting may support brain health and cognitive function, and may even protect against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. • Reduced Inflammation: Fasting can ease inflammatory responses in the body, and chronic inflammation is linked to arthritis, some cancers and various other conditions. Please note that intermittent fasting is not for everyone. If you have an underlying condition, are pregnant or taking medication, consult a healthcare professional before starting. A balanced diet and healthy lifestyle are what maximize the benefits of fasting.
