How do you calculate the macro & micronutrients?

We use the latest nutrition science and cross-examine credible studies to keep every meal's macro and micronutrient breakdown accurate.

Who are your meals designed for?

Macro&Micro meals are built for bodybuilders, powerlifters and high-performance athletes who need consistent, macro- and micronutrient-tracked nutrition for muscle growth, strength and recovery — without spending hours cooking.

How much protein is in each meal?

It varies by meal, but most of our high-protein meals deliver between 60g and 77g of protein per serving. The full macro breakdown is listed on every product page.

Are the meals fresh or frozen?

Our meals are made fresh, then frozen and vacuum sealed to lock in freshness and nutrition.

What delivery service do you use?

For national deliveries (excluding Cape Town) we use The Courier Guy for punctuality and reliability. For Cape Town we use Uber for next-day delivery once your order is completed.

Do you deliver nationwide in South Africa?

Yes — we deliver across South Africa via The Courier Guy, with next-day Uber delivery inside Cape Town.

How long does delivery take?

Cape Town orders are delivered next-day once your order is completed. National orders take 3–5 business days once completed.

How are frozen meals kept cold in transit?

Your meals stay frozen or slightly thawed in transit throughout the 3–5 business day delivery window.

In the freezer, our meals stay good for up to 3 months. Once thawed, they keep for up to 3 days in the fridge if still vacuum sealed.

Are your meals microwaveable?

Yes they are! Just remember to defrost them before putting them in the microwave.

How do I reheat my meal?

A pan is the best option. Otherwise, microwave from fully thawed until piping hot.

We don't recommend refreezing a meal once it's been defrosted.

Where are your meals made?

All meals are prepared fresh locally in Cape Town, portion-controlled and Macro&Micro-calculated for consistency.
