Free resources

What you get

The public resources page collects Ojava’s free lead magnets in one place: where-to-start checklists, baseline lab-review education, a dedicated advanced lab review prep resource, a dedicated therapy cost and coverage prep worksheet, condition-oriented education pages, cited primary-care, chronic-care, and mental-wellness resource pages, a research-backed Health Score calculator, a public symptom assessment, a cited food-log quality checker, chronic flare and trigger prep, health-data starter calculators, sleep and recovery challenges, follow-up note templates, and visit-prep workshop material. They are designed to help you understand what records you have, what is missing, and how to bring clearer questions into a clinician visit.

The public tools pages add standalone calculators and worksheets for cholesterol ratios, biomarker education, medication interaction conversation prep, sleep-score interpretation, research-backed Health Score calculation, longevity readiness, food-log quality checking, chronic symptom, flare, and trigger prep, lab-test prep, and medical-records visit prep. The public assessment page adds fixed urgent-warning-sign screening before any non-emergency Coach handoff. Each tool shows the research, guideline, or official patient-education source behind the claim and names when Ojava has not validated a clinical calculation.

• Irregular Sleep/Wake Patterns Are Associated With Poorer Academic Performance and Delayed Circadian and Sleep/Wake Timing, Phillips, Clerx, O'Brien, et al., 2017. Supports sleep regularity and timing as meaningful wellness context. It does not validate a proprietary wearable score.

The food-log quality checker uses the same cited education lane as the signed-in food-log guide: it checks whether a diary sample has enough meal dates, entry methods, serving context, label detail, calorie-to-macro consistency, and missing-input notes to support a cleaner self-tracking question before a user signs in and brings the packet to Ojava Coach.

• Dietary Assessment Primer, National Cancer Institute (2026). Used for the scientific boundary that no self-reported diet method is perfect and that food records need clear details, consistent timing, and careful interpretation.
• 24-hour dietary recall at a glance, National Cancer Institute (2026). Used for the food-detail model behind Ojava logging prompts: capture foods, beverages, time, source, preparation details, and portion size instead of relying on a food name alone.
• Overview of Dietary Assessment Methods for Measuring Intakes of Foods, Beverages, and Dietary Supplements in Research Studies, Current Nutrition Reports (2021). Used for the evidence boundary that self-reported dietary exposure measurement is difficult, so Ojava treats food logging as reviewed pattern context rather than precise nutrition truth.
• Essential guide to food logging, Local food-logging education reference snapshot (2025). Used as competitive reference context for food diary education patterns: logging consistency, portion review, label caveats, and app workflow readiness. Ojava wording and boundaries remain original.

Lab-review education

Baseline lab resources focus on organizing a panel: the test name, value, unit, date, fasting status, medication context, prior result, and questions for the clinician. The dedicated advanced lab review prep resource turns that into a deeper worksheet for lining up repeated markers over time, keeping the original PDF or portal screenshot, preserving units and reference ranges, noting medication, supplement, exercise, illness, cycle, and timing context, and writing clinician questions before the visit.

The advanced lab review page reuses the public resource signup pattern and the shared citation system. Its linked references come from the lab-test prep checklist and biomarker reference lookup citation sets, and the page states the boundary directly: no diagnosis, no disease-risk label, no lab ordering, no medication or supplement changes, and no clinician review included in the public resource.

Therapy cost and coverage prep

The therapy cost and coverage prep resource is a mental-wellness affordability worksheet. It helps a visitor collect plan details, deductible and cost-sharing questions, prior-authorization questions, EAP leads, sliding-scale and local public-resource options, group therapy questions, online-care tradeoffs, and clinic fee notes before contacting a plan, employer, clinic, or clinician.

The page uses official coverage, benefits, EAP, and treatment-locator sources. Its boundary is intentionally narrow: no therapy, no diagnosis, no provider matching, no booking, no crisis assessment, no medication advice, no coverage decision, no claim or prior-auth submission, and no payment promise.

Signed-in users can also ask Ojava Coach directly for a therapy cost and coverage prep packet. Coach uses the same affordability-prep boundary, so the workspace can organize questions without choosing a provider, booking care, filing payer requests, or promising that any service is covered.

Condition-oriented resources

Public condition pages are education and visit prep. They can help you collect symptoms, recent labs, wearable trends, medication names, and questions for a clinician conversation. They do not diagnose a condition, tell you whether you have it, prescribe treatment, or tell you which labs to order.

When Ojava Coach is the right surface

Personalized AI review belongs inside signed-in Ojava Coach and any plan gates that apply, because it needs your accepted records, consent choices, and the safety instructions that keep answers bounded. Free resources can help you prepare the packet. Ojava Coach can help explain the accepted packet you allow it to see, but it still cannot diagnose, prescribe, order labs, promise clinician review, or replace medical care.

How email signup works

Resource signup, the homepage resource popup, and the landing-page newsletter footer use the same first-party newsletter signup path. Ojava stores your email address and the public page you signed up from so the team knows which resource brought you in. It does not create an account, import records, or connect to your health data.

Medical boundary

Free resources are educational and prep-focused. They can help you organize labs, wearables, records, symptoms, and questions, but they do not diagnose, prescribe, order labs, set medication doses, or replace a licensed clinician.
