Targeted Nutrition

We’re committed to simplifying your journey towards better health while understanding that this looks different for everyone. It’s why we constantly work towards offering more variety and choice to fit your unique needs. Our chefs and dietitians collaborate to create meals that meet rigorous nutritional standards while delivering on flavour and satisfaction. We believe that eating well should never feel like a compromise.

Our Approach is Built On Three Core Pillars

Evidence-based
Our product development is grounded in the latest scientific research to ensure our offerings are nutritionally sound. As research evolves, so do we -- regularly updating our standards to reflect the latest findings.
Wholesome Nourishment
We believe true nourishment feeds the body, mind, and soul. By making nutrition both easy and flavourful, we aim to go beyond food, laying the foundation for lasting wellness and a balanced life.
Mindful Balance
Our products are crafted with intention, using carefully measured ingredients to balance nutrition and boost satiety. By incorporating a diverse range of whole foods, we aim to deliver health-supporting nutrients while minimizing the use of additives and fillers.

The Science Behind Our Meals

Factor meals are designed with a mix of carbohydrates, protein, and fats for well-rounded nutrition. We prioritize nutrient-rich ingredients that help support both physical health and emotional well-being.*
Carbohydrates:
Fibre-rich, complex carbs are found in grains, legumes, fruits, and vegetables. These help regulate blood sugar and cholesterol levels, support digestion, and provide steady energy and satiety.
Protein:
Protein from sources like meat, fish, tofu, legumes, and dairy helps with muscle repair, tissue health, and keeping you fuller for longer.
Fat:
Healthy fats from oils, nuts, seeds, and fish aid in vitamin absorption, boost brain health, and enhance both flavour and satiety.

Our Ingredient Standards

We want you to feel good about the ingredients on your plate. That’s why we carefully select high-quality ingredients, following strict standards to ensure every bite is packed with nutrition and free from unnecessary extras.

Our team evaluates each ingredient through a comprehensive approval process, considering its health impact, safety, efficacy, and alignment with consumer expectations and the latest nutritional science. Out of more than 500 assessed ingredients, we’ve excluded over 160 to meet our rigorous nutritional benchmarks.

This commitment extends to every element of our meals, from the core ingredients we choose to the care we take in preparation.
