Eating well on Ozempic
Ozempic (semaglutide) slows digestion and reduces appetite, so meals that are protein-forward, modest in size, and gentle on the stomach tend to feel best. Here is how people commonly approach eating on it.
Lead with protein
With a smaller appetite, protein can slip. Building each meal around a protein source helps you get enough even when you are eating less overall.
Smaller, more frequent
Large plates can feel overwhelming. Many people find smaller portions, eaten more often, more comfortable — especially early in a dose.
Go gentle on rough days
On queasy days, blander, lower-smell, cooler foods often feel easier. Our gentle and nausea-friendly collections group meals with that in mind.
