Ingredients That Heal, Not Harm: Our Promise to You

Ingredients That Heal, Not Harm: Our Promise to You

At My Meals, we believe that every bite should be part of the healing process — not part of the problem.


That’s why we made a promise when we created My Meals:

We would only ever serve food that supports health, vitality, and better living.


Sadly, many meals on the market — even ones claiming to be “healthy” — are packed with:

 

  • Seed oils (like canola and soybean oil)

  • Artificial additives

  • Preservatives

  • Highly processed ingredients


These additives don’t just harm the gut — they increase inflammation, raise the risk of disease, and leave the body constantly fighting instead of healing.

Our Standard: Real Ingredients, Real Nutrition

 

Here’s what you’ll never find in a My Meals dish:

❌ Seed oils

❌ Preservatives

❌ Artificial additives

❌ Ultra-processed fillers


And here’s what you’ll always find:


✅ Healthy fats like olive oil and butter

✅ Fresh, whole vegetables

✅ Clean, pasture-raised proteins

✅ Real herbs and spices — not chemical flavourings


Because your body deserves food that fuels healing, not food that silently creates more damage.

The Science Behind It

 

A growing body of research backs this up:


🔵 A 2022 study from Nutrients Journal confirmed that diets high in processed additives and seed oils are directly linked to:

 

  • Higher inflammation markers

  • Increased rates of cognitive decline

  • Greater risk of metabolic diseases

 

Meanwhile, a diet centred around whole, natural foods improves:

 

  • Gut health

  • Brain function

  • Energy levels

  • Emotional wellbeing

 

It’s not just about feeling good today — it’s about building a healthier future.

Why It Matters for Disability and Aged Care

Participants and seniors deserve food that supports them at the cellular level.

Not food that works against their health goals.


Nutrition is one of the biggest underused tools for improving:

 

  • Focus

  • Energy

  • Healing speed

  • Overall quality of life

At My Meals, we don’t just believe in real food — we live by it.

And we’re proud to serve meals that help create healthier, happier lives.

Because every body deserves real food. 🌱
