How we cook

How we cook, and what goes into your meals.

On the left are examples of what we cook. Your meals change every day. On the right is what you can always count on.

Everything is cooked in very high quality olive oil or ghee, and seasoned with spices like fennel seed, coriander seed, cumin, turmeric, and bay leaf, so it tastes good.

Examples of what we cook

Drinks

Ginger shot, 2 oz

Fresh ginger. Sip it with breakfast.

Green juice

Celery, cucumber, leafy greens, ginger, and a little lemon.

Lemonade

Fresh lemon, sweetened with allulose, a sweetener that is not sugar.

Meals

Eggs and zucchini

One of our breakfasts.

Chicken, greens, a little rice

One of our lunches. On a GLP-1, the plate starts with the chicken, so you get enough protein before you feel full.

An early dinner

Planned for 6pm, so there are a few hours before bed. It changes every night.

Spices

Fennel seed, coriander seed, cumin, turmeric, and bay leaf. They are there for flavor.

At bedtime

Night packetLabel in review

A sealed packet of alginate, zinc carnosine, and DGL. You stir it into water at 9pm and make it the last thing you swallow before bed. It does not replace any medication. We will start sending it once a qualified reviewer approves the label.

What you can count on

Sugar

Fresh fruit juiceOn request

When you ask for it, we press it fresh in a slow juicer. That keeps more of the fiber and keeps the juice fresh longer.

Added sugarNever

Nothing we send has added sugar.

Oil

Olive oil or gheeAlways

Every meal is cooked in very high quality olive oil or in ghee.

Seed oilsNever

We do not cook with seed oils.

FryingNever

Nothing is ever fried.

Heartburn at night

Lemon, onion, pepper, and tomatoLeft out

If heartburn is your goal, we leave these out, because they tend to make heartburn worse.

LemonadeLeft out

For heartburn, your second drink is something other than lemonade.

Clear labelsAlways

Every jar is labeled with what is inside, the day, and the time to eat it.

Supplements

Hidden in your foodNever

Anything beyond food comes in its own labeled packet, so you always know what you are taking.

Your health

Your medicationsAlways

Keep taking what your doctor prescribed. We ask what you take so we can keep conflicting ingredients out, and a person checks before your meals are packed.

Your labsAlways

We use them to choose your ingredients. Reading them for your health is your doctor's job.

We are a meal service, not a doctor. If you are working with one, we plan your food to fit their care.
