Where would you like to start?

Four ways to eat well this week.

Three programmes

Pick the one that fits your week.

All programmes are cooked in the same kitchen. Portion sizes, protein and calories scale up from Artemis to Hercules. Not sure which is you? Run the macro calculator.

The Mediterranean Diet

The world's most studied diet. For good reason.

Consistently ranked the healthiest eating pattern on earth — backed by decades of clinical research. It's not a fad. It's a way of life that produces measurable, lasting results.

Heart Health

Rich in olive oil, omega-3s and antioxidants, the Mediterranean diet has been shown to reduce LDL cholesterol and lower the risk of cardiovascular disease by up to 30%.

Sustained Energy

Complex carbs, quality proteins and healthy fats keep blood sugar stable — no mid-afternoon crashes, no sugar spikes. Sharp mornings and steady afternoons.

Mental Clarity

Omega-3s, polyphenols and B vitamins support brain function and mood. Studies link Mediterranean eating to lower risk of cognitive decline and depression.

Weight Management

High fibre, high protein, high satisfaction. Meals keep you fuller for longer, so healthy weight management stops feeling like deprivation.

Longevity

The Mediterranean "Blue Zones" consistently produce longer, healthier lives. Anti-inflammatory eating supports healthy ageing at a cellular level.

Reduced Inflammation

Extra-virgin olive oil, fresh vegetables, legumes and herbs are among the most potent anti-inflammatory foods on earth — eaten consistently, they change how you feel.

What the research says

The PREDIMED study (7,447 participants over 5 years) found that a Mediterranean diet supplemented with extra-virgin olive oil or mixed nuts reduced the risk of major cardiovascular events by around 30% compared to a low-fat diet. It is endorsed by the World Health Organisation, Harvard Medical School and the British Heart Foundation as a primary dietary intervention for long-term health.

What we do

Each container is tagged with your name, the meal, the date, macros and reheating instructions. No guessing. No mix-ups. Ready for the week.

05
