1. Energy balance and macronutrient distribution


It all starts with energy in and energy out. Eat too little and you won’t have the drive to give your best; eat too much and your body feels heavy and sluggish. To keep pace with life - whether in the office or at the gym - you need the right amount of fuel and the right mix of nutrients. Our bodies are like high-performance engines, they need exactly the right fuel balance to run their best.

That’s why we’ve designed MËTTA with a balanced macronutrient profile, like the classic “plate model” in powdered form. Each food shake gives you 400 kcal, the equivalent of a balanced lunch or a substantial snack. That energy is distributed as roughly 40% slow-release carbohydrates, 30% high-quality protein, and 30% healthy fats - plus fibre, vitamins, and minerals.

This 40/30/30 balance (with a little extra fibre) is no coincidence. It reflects both modern nutritional science and proven experience of what the body thrives on: carbohydrates for energy and focus, protein for strength and satiety, and fats for endurance and wellbeing - all in one meal.

What does this mean for you in practice? It means steady energy without the classic dips. No food coma after lunch, no falling for afternoon sugar cravings. Instead, you can stay focused in your meeting, push through that extra set at the gym, and still have energy left to play with the kids or meet friends in the evening. With the right fuel in the tank, every day becomes easier to max out.

Macronutrient distribution in %

  • Carbohydrates: 36% (40g) | Oats
  • Protein: 32% (31g) | Pea, rice, oats
  • Fats: 30% (12g) | Avocado, coconut, flaxseed, sunflower
  • Fibre: 2% (5.5g) | Oats, flaxseed

2. Protein quality and function


Protein is the building block of your body. Every time you break down muscle during a workout or push through a long workday, protein helps you rebuild and recover. Without enough protein, recovery suffers and you risk feeling weaker over time. But it’s not just about the amount, quality matters just as much.

Each food shake provides 31g of protein with the highest possible quality. We use a thoughtful combination of pea protein, rice protein, and oat protein for one simple reason: together, they provide a complete amino acid profile. Peas contribute high levels of essential amino acids. Rice protein complements peas with methionine and cysteine. Oat protein adds extra protein, fibre, and minerals such as magnesium and zinc. Together, these three form a complete, highly bioavailable protein source that the body can easily absorb and use.

For you, this means every shake delivers exactly the proteins your muscles need, whether it’s for repairing after strength training or keeping you full until the next meal. Protein isn’t just muscle fuel - it’s also the most satiating nutrient. By loading your meals with protein, you signal to your body that everything is under control. Hunger stays away longer and you avoid unnecessary snacking, leaving you free to focus on what matters. And your muscles? They get exactly what they need to grow stronger and keep up with your lifestyle.

3. Carbohydrate quality and energy curve


Carbohydrates sometimes get an undeserved bad reputation, but the truth is they’re your main source of energy, if you choose the right kind. Have you ever had a sugary breakfast and felt tired just an hour later? Compare that to the days you start with a hearty bowl of porridge, the difference is huge. It all comes down to the quality of the carbs and how they affect your blood sugar curve.

In our food shakes, oats are the main carbohydrate source. Why oats? Because they’re packed with complex carbs and fibre that release energy slowly and steadily. Instead of a quick spike and crash, you get a stable energy curve that lasts. Think of it like lighting a fire with birch bark that flares up and dies quickly versus putting on a solid log that glows for hours. That’s the difference between fast sugars and wholegrains like oats.

Many competitors and ready-made meal solutions cut corners by filling their powders with maltodextrin or other cheap, fast carbs. Sure, they mix easily and give you an instant kick, but that comes with an equally instant crash. We’ve deliberately chosen a different path. By relying on natural ingredients like oat flour, we give you not only stable blood sugar and long-lasting energy, but also all the extra nutrients that come with real food. Oats provide B vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants you’ll never get from a scoop of pure sugar.

For you, this means drinking your shake keeps you alert and focused for hours, without chasing the next caffeine hit or sugar fix. It’s sustainable energy for a busy lifestyle.

4. Fat composition and function


Fat is not the enemy. On the contrary, it’s essential for your body to perform at its best. Fat is your built-in long-distance fuel and the lubricant of your body’s machinery. Without enough of the right fats, hormone production slows, your brain struggles, and meals won’t leave you satisfied. But it’s important to choose fats wisely, just like with carbs, there are both shortcuts and golden options.

About 30% of the energy in a MËTTA comes from fats, carefully sourced from plants. We’ve put together a quartet of nutrient-rich ingredients, avocado, coconut, flaxseed, and sunflower, to provide the essential fats your body needs.

Flaxseed oil delivers omega-3 (ALA), an essential fatty acid that reduces inflammation and supports brain function. Sunflower oil adds omega-6 in the form of linoleic acid, plus vitamin E, which acts as an antioxidant in the body. We’ve ensured the balance between omega-3 and omega-6 is just right, so your body gets both in the right proportions.

Avocado oil provides plenty of monounsaturated fat (omega-9), known for supporting heart health by lowering “bad” LDL cholesterol. Avocados also contain lutein, an antioxidant that helps protect your eyes.

Coconut oil adds something unique: MCT fats (medium-chain triglycerides), which the body can burn almost as quickly as carbohydrates. Think of it as quick energy, perfect when you need extra focus or stamina, and very stable fats that don’t oxidise easily.

The combination of these oils creates a fat profile that does more than provide energy, it genuinely supports your health in depth.

For you, this means every food shake provides fats that keep you satisfied and sharp. You get fuel that lasts, building blocks for brain cells, and nutrients that protect your heart and circulation. Without weighing you down, our selected fats give you long-lasting satiety and quietly support your body. Your body needs fat just as much as it needs water and oxygen, and with our meals, you get the best types, in just the right amounts.

Fettsyror i Mëtta – källor och hälsofördelar

Fettsyra/typ Källa i Mëtta Hälsofördelar
Omega-3 (ALA) Linfröolja Essentiell fettsyra; antiinflammatorisk, bra för hjärt-kärlhälsa.
Omega-6 (Linolsyra) Solrosolja Essentiell fettsyra; nödvändig för cellfunktion. Balanseras med omega-3 för optimalt ratio; rik på vitamin E (antioxidant).
Omega-9 (enkelomättat) Avokadoolja Hög halt oleinsyra; sänker "dåligt" LDL-kolesterol och höjer "bra" HDL (stödjer hjärtat). Innehåller också lutein (antioxidant för ögonhälsa).
MCT (medellånga fetter) Kokosolja Medium Chain Triglycerider; ger snabb energi då de förbränns likt kolhydrater. Oxiderar inte lätt, dvs. stabila fetter som inte härsknar fort (minskar risk för skadliga plack i kärlen).

5. Fibre sources and gut/metabolic health


Fibre is the unsung hero of nutrition. It may not get as much attention as protein or vitamins, but it does wonders. A fibre-rich diet is like having a personal trainer for your metabolism, keeping everything running smoothly and providing a good environment for healthy gut bacteria. For anyone living a fast-paced life, fibre is especially important: it helps stabilise blood sugar, keeps your digestion happy, and leaves you feeling fuller for longer.

In our food shakes, fibre comes from oats. Oats contain beta-glucans, a soluble fibre that forms a gel in the gut and can, among other things, lower cholesterol levels. That’s great news for your heart and blood vessels! At the same time, these fibres slow down carb absorption, keeping your blood sugar more stable after meals.

In the long term, fibre benefits your whole body. It’s linked to lower risk of heart disease, better weight control, and a healthier gut microbiome. So as you power through your day, you can trust that fibre is quietly working for your health with every sip.

6. Micronutrients and phytonutrients


They say the devil is in the detail, and so is good health. Vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients (plant compounds with positive effects) are the small details in your diet that make a big difference. If macronutrients are the fuel and building blocks, micronutrients are the oil that keeps the engine running smoothly. Fall short on key vitamins or minerals for long enough and your body will eventually object, with fatigue, a weaker immune system, or other vague signals.

We’ve ensured every serving of MËTTA is packed with a complete spectrum of micronutrients. You get 26 different vitamins and minerals in a balanced mix: from vitamin A for vision and immune support, to zinc for metabolism and muscle recovery. There’s vitamin B12 (especially important on a plant-based diet), vitamin D (both D2 and D3) which many of us need more of for bone health, and iron to help carry oxygen to your muscles when you train. The point is simple: nothing in your food shake is there by accident, every micronutrient serves a purpose.

Beyond these added vitamins and minerals, you also get a range of phytonutrients naturally from our ingredients, nature’s own little bonuses. Oats provide phenols and avenanthramides, antioxidants that can help calm inflammation. Avocado brings lutein and other carotenoids that support eyes and skin. Flaxseed and sunflower seed also contribute plant compounds that help keep the body in balance. They may work in the background, but they support long-term health in subtle, important ways.

For you, this means you can trust our products to cover the full nutritional spectrum. On a hectic day when lunch ends up being a rushed sandwich, a food shake ensures at least your vitamins and minerals are sorted. Think of it as insurance for your diet: even when things aren’t perfect, your baseline is protected. That’s one less thing to worry about, so you can focus where it matters and make time for what you truly care about.

7. Realism and everyday practicality (Plan B: shakes for hectic days)


We know life doesn’t always run like clockwork. Even if the goal is to eat perfectly balanced meals every day, there are mornings when you dash out the door with shoes in hand. There are days when meetings pile up and your packed lunch sits untouched in the fridge. And there are evenings when you get home so late that cooking is the last thing on your mind. These moments aren’t exceptions, they’re simply part of life. And it’s exactly for times like these that MËTTA is your lifesaver.

The whole idea behind MËTTA is to give you a practical tool. We’re not trying to replace the joy of a home-cooked dinner or the social moments of eating out. On the contrary, we love real food too. But we know that to keep a healthy diet over time, you need a plan for when life gets messy. MËTTA is your plan B for those days when time or energy won’t stretch to a “perfect” meal. With our food-shake at hand, you’ve always got a complete meal ready in under a minute. Just add water, shake, drink, and carry on with your day. You’ll get everything you need without stove mess or unhealthy (and expensive) fast-food quick fixes.

Living healthily is largely about making it easy to do the right thing. If you know you’ve got a MËTTA in your bag, car, or desk, you don’t have to stress about what to eat when your schedule gets tight. That gives you the confidence and freedom to focus on what really matters. Instead of choosing between eating poorly or skipping meals when you’re rushed, you can choose an option that’s both nutritious and tasty. And we’ve made sure our flavours are so good you’ll actually look forward to your shake, it should feel like a treat, not a punishment, when you turn to plan B.

In short, our food shakes are designed for real life. For all of us who sometimes hit snooze too many times, get double-booked calendars, or simply want to simplify life without compromising on health. Life can be chaotic, but your nutrition doesn’t have to be.

8. Frequently Asked Questions and Responsible Guidance


When you start considering food shakes as part of your diet, questions naturally come up, and we’re happy to answer them. Honesty and transparency are cornerstones of our philosophy. Here we address some common thoughts and explain our reasoning, always with your best interests in mind.

Can I lose weight or build muscle with MËTTA?

Yes, you can, depending on how you use our food shakes. They’re designed to deliver maximum nutrition per calorie, which is an advantage whether your goal is to slim down or build strength.

If you want to lose weight, one shake can replace a meal per day to reduce calorie intake, while still giving you enough protein, fibre, and vitamins to feel good. At around 400 kcal it will leave you full and satisfied, making it easier to resist empty calories later in the day.

On the other hand, if your goal is to build muscle or gain weight, MËTTA works as a convenient snack or post-workout recovery meal. The 31 grams of protein support muscle growth, and you can easily add an extra shake or top it up with a banana, nuts, or other foods if you need more calories.

Think of MËTTA as a flexible tool: it can support a calorie deficit or ensure a calorie surplus, depending on how you build it into your day.

Can I replace all my meals with your shakes?

Nutritionally, the answer is yes, MËTTA contains everything you need to cover your daily requirements. In fact, some people live almost entirely on our shakes for certain periods, getting complete protein, fats, carbohydrates, fibre, vitamins, and minerals. But our general advice is still to aim for variety. MËTTA is here to make life easier, not to take away the joy of eating real food. For most people, it works best as a complement: maybe breakfast when time is short, lunch at work instead of fast food, or post-workout recovery. Then you can enjoy a traditional dinner with family or friends in the evening. That way you get the best of both worlds, the convenience and nutritional assurance of MËTTA when you need it, and the joy and variety of regular meals when you have the chance.

What about allergies and special diets?

MËTTA is completely plant-based (vegan), lactose-free, and free from nuts and soy. However, we do use oats in our products, which means they aren’t suitable if you have coeliac disease or severe gluten intolerance. The oats themselves are clean but processed in an environment where traces of gluten may occur.

But as always: if you’re on medication or unsure, check with your doctor before adding new foods to your diet.

If you have diabetes, MËTTA can be a good option thanks to its low sugar content and slow-release carbs, many people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes find their blood sugar stays more stable compared to a regular meal.

Our shakes are also designed for an active lifestyle, but if you have a medical condition requiring a special diet (e.g. kidney issues affecting protein intake, or other specific conditions), we recommend speaking with healthcare before making major changes to your diet.

Got more questions?

Don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to guide you. Our ambition is always to provide responsible guidance, which means we’d rather give a nuanced answer than a pushy sales pitch. Your health and trust are more important to us than short-term gain. So ask away, discuss with us, and share your thoughts. Together, we’ll make sure MËTTA becomes a tool you use in the way that best supports you and your lifestyle.
