## Description

Get the user's logged food and water intake, with aggregate calorie, macro and water totals. Example: startDate="2026-08-24" → `entries: [{ time, foodDisplayName: "Greek yogurt", mealType: "BREAKFAST", calories: 180, totalFatG: 4.5, totalCarbohydrateG: 9 }]`, `hydration: [{ time, milliliters: 500, liters: 0.5, flOz: 16.9 }]`, and `totals`. `totals` is **one object covering the whole requested range, not per-day figures** — call a single day at a time if daily breakdowns are wanted. Entries have no date-range limit, but `totals` are server-aggregated and cap the range at 90 days — set includeTotals=false to read entries over a longer span, which makes `totals` `null`. At most **1000 food entries and 1000 hydration entries** come back per call (five pages of 200); `truncated: true` means there were more, so check it before treating the entry list as complete and narrow the range if it is set. Only food the user **logged manually** appears here; nothing is inferred from activity, so an empty result means nothing was logged, not that nothing was eaten. [See the documentation](https://developers.google.com/health/data-types/nutrition)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `startDate` | `string` | No | Start date in YYYY-MM-DD format (e.g. 2026-08-24), in the user's own timezone. Defaults to today in UTC, which can be a day off from the user's local date late at night — pass an explicit date when the exact day matters. |
| `endDate` | `string` | No | End date in YYYY-MM-DD format, inclusive. Defaults to Start Date, i.e. a single day. For a whole week, set Start Date to the Monday and End Date to the Sunday. |
| `includeTotals` | `boolean` | No | Include aggregated calorie, macro, and water totals for the range. Defaults to true. Totals are server-aggregated and cap the range at 90 days; set this to false to read entries over a longer span. |
| `fields` | `string[]` | No | Field names to keep on each food entry. Defaults to a compact set: time, foodDisplayName, mealType, calories, totalFatG, totalCarbohydrateG, servingAmount, servingUnit. Also available: nutrients (the full forty-nutrient breakdown), energyFromFatKcal, foodResourceName, utcOffset. |

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
