Are your meals low in carbs, calories, fat, and sodium?
Yes! Our women’s standard plan (3 meals and 2 snacks per day) is on average 1,200 calories, and the bistroMD men’s standard plan (3 meals and 3 snacks per day) is on average 1,400 calories. Looking at each of our entrées, you can expect approximately the following: 40-45% of these calories are from lean protein, 30-35% from complex carbohydrates, and 20-25% from healthy fat. Each meal meets or falls below US Dietary Guidelines for sodium for US adults, so depending on which meals you order, you can estimate around 2000-2300mg per day. Please note; If your doctor has recommended that you follow a lower sodium diet, we are happy to accommodate a low sodium program that averages about 1500mg per day. We will eliminate certain entrees, especially with ethnic flavors like soy sauce, from your program. While the variety of our low sodium program is still diverse, please know that it will not include the full range of entrees offered by bistroMD. Our team of dietitians carefully balance all the meals on your program to ensure you are getting all the nutrients you need to feel better and lose weight. Though it may not seem like it, strictly going for meals with super low numbers can be dangerous to your overall health. BistroMD is also USDA approved, so every meal is labeled with the complete nutritional value and ingredients.
