  • HBN meals are higher in protein which increase satiety and reduce cravings.

  • Fiber from veggies improves gut health and provides essential vitamins and minerals.

  • Carb content in regular meals is moderate, keeping your blood sugar in check while also providing energy for exercise and daily activities.

Meal Recommendations

It’s inevitable. Hormone change drastically which can lead to unwanted fat gain, especially in the abdominal region, and increase risk of diabetes and CVD.

Estrogen is one of the regulators of metabolism and glucose homeostasis in women. It promotes insulin sensitivity. Estrogen production ceases as a women goes through menopause causing a shift in metabolism related to insulin resistance, abdominal fat gain, increased risk of CVD and other metabolic diseases.

The decrease in insulin sensitivity can be combated with dietary changes. Lower carb meals and snacks are key to reducing the need for insulin after eating.

Our low carb meals are lower in calorie but have adequate protein to increase satiety and provide the essential amino acids to support health and muscle mass.
