Why GLP-1 Users Are Loving Meati

GLP-1 medications can help people lose up to 15–20% of their body weight, but they also change how eating feels. When digestion slows and portions shrink, every bite matters more than ever.

This is where Meati steps in. Made from nutrient-dense mycelium, it delivers complete protein, gentle digestion, and lasting satisfaction in portions that feel right, not heavy.

Let’s see how Meati fits the GLP-1 lifestyle, from complete protein and gentle digestion to easy meals and planet-friendly nutrition that helps you feel steady, satisfied, and at ease.

A New Way to Feel Full Without Feeling Heavy

If you’re on a GLP-1 medication like Ozempic or Wegovy, you know the goal: 

Eat less, feel full, and still manage to nourish your body. 

GLP-1 medications slow digestion, which is why heavy meals can feel overwhelming. That’s why Meati stands out. It’s clean, satisfying, and gentle on your gut.

Made from mycelium, Meati delivers complete protein and essential nutrients without the heaviness, making it a perfect fit for the GLP-1 lifestyle. 

Meet the Superfood: Mycelium

Mycelium is the root-like structure of fungi, grown indoors in a clean, controlled environment. The star of the show is the Neurospora crassa species of mycelium, the powerhouse that gives Meati its simple, whole-food nutrition, offering:

• Complete Protein: All nine essential amino acids with a perfect 1.0 PDCAAS score, matching the quality of animal protein.

• High Fiber: A mix of beta-glucans and insoluble fiber that supports digestion and cholesterol management.

• Low-Fat Nutrition: Very low total fat with zero cholesterol and saturated fat.

• Essential Micronutrients: Zinc, iron, and B vitamins like riboflavin, niacin, and folate that support energy and immunity.

Meati keeps it simple. One hero ingredient. No weird additives. No blending proteins. 

Protein That Works Smarter, Not Harder

When GLP-1 medications reduce your appetite, protein has to do more with less. 

Each Meati Cutlet delivers about 15g of complete protein (30% DV), with options like the Crispy Cutlet packing 17g (34% DV), giving your body all nine essential amino acids in a portion that fits smaller meals.

High-quality protein supports lean muscle during calorie restriction, which experts say is important because GLP-1–related weight loss can include muscle loss.

Meati makes every bite count, giving your body exactly what it needs, even when you’re eating less.

Gentle on Digestion, Big on Satisfaction

GLP-1 medications help you feel full, but they often slow digestion, which can lead to gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation. 

Meati is very mindful about digestion. One Meati Classic Cutlet provides about 25% of your daily fiber needs, supporting smooth, balanced digestion. All of this comes naturally from mycelium itself, without any fillers or heavy processing.

With Meati, you get the comfort of a hearty, satisfying meal, without the post-meal slump or stomach drama.

Versatile, Delicious, and Oh-So-Easy

Meati makes everyday meals feel effortless, whether you’re keeping things simple or switching it up. It cooks quickly and pairs easily with foods you love. 

Here are a few ways to enjoy Meati. 

Classic Steak Teriyaki Bowl

• Whisk the sauce by mixing arrowroot starch with warm water, then adding the remaining sauce ingredients until smooth.

• Cook the rice according to package directions and set aside.

• Sear Meati Classic Steak in 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat, cooking 3–5 minutes until browned and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• Stir-fry the vegetables by cooking bok choy for 2 minutes, then adding bell pepper and carrots, and cooking 2 more minutes until tender.

• Finish the bowl by returning the steak to the pan, adding the sauce, and stirring for about 2 minutes until thickened. Then, serve over rice with green onions and Togarashi.

Tip: To make this bowl even lighter, reduce the sweetener in the teriyaki sauce to 1–2 teaspoons or use a sugar-free liquid sweetener instead. You can also swap white rice for brown rice, quinoa, cauliflower rice, or add extra veggies to boost fiber. 

Hawaiian Classic Cutlet Lettuce Wraps

• Mix the salsa by combining crushed pineapple, roasted red bell peppers, and red onion in a bowl, then set aside.

• Preheat the grill to medium heat and season both sides of Meati Classic Cutlets with salt, pepper, and olive oil.

• Grill the cutlets for 6–8 minutes, flipping often, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. 

• Then rest for 60 seconds and cut into 1-inch pieces.

• Toss the cutlets with Huli Huli sauce (or teriyaki) until evenly coated.

• Assemble the wraps by filling lettuce leaves with diced cutlets, pineapple salsa, and chopped cilantro.

Tip: For a lighter option, skip traditional Huli Huli or teriyaki and use a certified sugar-free or very low-sugar sauce instead. You can also reduce the amount of pineapple and bulk up the salsa with extra roasted bell pepper or cucumber for crunch without the extra sugar.

Good for You, Good for the Planet

Meati’s mycelium grows indoors using a smarter, lighter approach to food production: 

• Lower Emissions: Produces up to 89% fewer greenhouse gases than beef and 66% fewer than chicken.

• Less Water: Uses about 577 liters per kilogram, compared to 2,145 liters for beef and 832 liters for chicken.

• Less Land: Needs only 1.3 m² per kilogram, while beef uses 23.8 m² and chicken 6.5 m².

• No Animals Involved: Creates zero methane emissions and no slaughterhouse waste.

• Regenerative Potential: Can grow using agricultural byproducts, turning waste into food.

Meati fuels your body while being kinder to the planet. That’s a win-win.

Real Nutrition. Real Satisfaction. No Compromise.

Eating on a GLP-1 is a reset, not a setback. With high-quality protein for strength, fiber for steady gut health, and clean ingredients that are easy to digest, Meati helps your body stay nourished as you move forward.

You deserve to feel good after every meal. Try Meati and enjoy clean protein that keeps you satisfied, not stuffed.
