Pause the urge
Open the app when you want to eat and answer one quick reflection question. The goal is not to judge the urge. It is to notice it.
Join the private beta waitlist
Stop eating on autopilot.
Pause a craving in seconds, then discover how sleep, mood, habits, time, and your environment shape when you want to eat.
NourishNot is not a calorie counter. It is a low-effort craving and trigger tracker that helps you understand the patterns behind mindless and emotional eating.

What users see
One clear question
A quick in-the-moment pause designed to reduce friction and make reflection feel easy.
Why it matters
Awareness before action

How it works
Three small steps. One clearer picture.
NourishNot is designed for the moment when a full journal feels like too much. Each check-in is brief, but the patterns become more useful over time.
2
Name the likely trigger
Record whether the urge may be connected to physical hunger, stress, boredom, habit, low energy, time of day, or something in your environment.

Discover your patterns
As check-ins accumulate, NourishNot helps you see when certain moods, sleep patterns, routines, or places tend to coincide with cravings.
Your personal trigger map
The check-in is the beginning. The pattern is the value.

Frequently asked questions
Understand the app before you join.
Practical answers about the beta, privacy, hunger science, and what NourishNot is designed to do.
What is NourishNot?
NourishNot is a craving and trigger-awareness app. It helps you pause when you want to eat, record what may be influencing the urge, and discover recurring relationships among mood, sleep, habits, time, and environment.
Is NourishNot a calorie counter or diet app?
No. NourishNot does not require you to record every meal or follow a prescribed diet. Its focus is the moment before eating and the personal patterns surrounding that moment.
What is the Apple Test?
It is a quick reflection prompt: would a simple, nourishing food feel satisfying right now? The answer can help you pause and consider whether the urge may involve physical hunger, emotion, habit, or an environmental cue. It is a prompt for awareness, not a medical test.
Does NourishNot tell me not to eat?
No. The purpose is to make the choice more visible, not to prohibit food. You can eat after checking in. The result remains useful information rather than a success-or-failure score.
What patterns can the app help me notice?
Depending on the information you choose to record, NourishNot can help surface recurring connections involving stress, boredom, low energy, sleep, time of day, routines, and environmental context.
Does the app diagnose emotional eating?
No. NourishNot is a self-reflection and habit-awareness tool. It does not diagnose or treat medical, nutritional, or psychological conditions and is not a replacement for professional care.
How long does a check-in take?
The core reflection is designed to take only a few seconds. Adding mood or contextual information may take a little longer, but the experience is intentionally lightweight.
Is location tracking required?
No. Environmental context can help reveal place-based triggers, but users should be able to decline location access and still use the app’s core features.
Is NourishNot available now?
NourishNot is currently in closed beta. Join the mailing list to hear when new beta places or broader access become available.
What will you send me after I join?
You will receive occasional product updates and notices about beta access or launch availability. You can unsubscribe at any time.
What is included in NourishNot Pro?
Pro adds weekly pattern reports, AI-powered predictive insights, the “What Now?” AI coach, sleep integration analysis, and PDF data exports.
Are AI predictions medical advice?
No. Predictive insights are based on patterns in the information you record. They are intended to support awareness and preparation, not diagnose conditions or provide medical treatment.
Can I share my reports with a professional?
Yes. Pro users can export reports as PDF files to share with a doctor, dietitian, therapist, or health coach. You decide what to export and whom to share it with.
What books do you recommend on hunger and neuroscience?
Good starting points include books that explore appetite regulation, food reward, habit, and modern food environments. Your current FAQ’s reading-list idea is worth preserving because it reinforces the educational side of NourishNot.
- The Hungry Brain by Stephan Guyenet
- Why We Eat (Too Much) by Andrew Jenkinson
- Hooked by Michael Moss
