GLP-1 Recipes

GLP-1 eating: common questions

What are the best foods to eat on GLP-1 medication?

Lean protein (chicken, fish, eggs, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, beans), plus vegetables and fibre-rich foods. Aim to eat protein first at each meal, keep portions small, and favour gentle, moist textures that are easy to eat on a reduced appetite.

How much protein should I eat on Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro?

A common target is roughly 0.6–0.8g of protein per pound of goal body weight (about 1.2–1.6g per kg), which lands many people between 80 and 120g a day. Spreading it across meals and snacks — 25–30g at a time — protects muscle while you lose weight.

What foods help with GLP-1 nausea?

Plain, cool, low-fat foods tend to settle best: Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, smooth soups, smoothies, crackers, and gentle scrambled eggs. Eat small amounts slowly, and avoid greasy, fried, rich or very spicy meals, which commonly trigger nausea.
