Nutrition for people with high standards.
High functioning nourishment, made simple, so your meals can support your momentum instead of interrupting it.
Our Standards.
Your New Baseline.
Eating well shouldn't mean scrutinizing every label or second-guessing every ingredient. We built Basis to make a higher standard feel effortless — with thoughtfully sourced ingredients, protein-forward meals, and no refined sugars or artificial additives. We sweat the details so you can spend less time worrying about your food and more time enjoying it.
Here's what our standards mean in practice.
40g to 60g+ Protein
Over 40g of high-quality protein in every meal to support muscle maintenance and recovery while keeping you feeling fuller for longer.
6g+ Fiber
We design our recipes around fiber-rich whole foods to help stabilize blood sugar, support a healthy gut microbiome, and avoid swings in energy levels.
No Seed Oils
No vegetable oils or inflammatory seed oils — ever. We only cook with olive and avocado oil, which are superior choices for both health and flavor. Rich in heart-healthy fats and vitamin E, olive and avocado oil support well-being while delivering buttery, subtle flavors that enhance every dish.
No Processed Ingredients or Refined Sugars
We avoid processed ingredients and refined sugars, crafting every meal and every sauce from scratch using only whole, natural foods.
Microplastic-Free Reusable Glass Jars
Plastic packaging is full of microplastics — proven to disrupt hormones, dropping testosterone by as much as 30% in some cases. We deliver your meals in reusable glass jars to limit microplastics exposure.
Grass-Fed, Pasture-Raised Proteins
We source only responsibly raised, hormone-free meat, delivering up to 3x more vital micronutrients like Omega-3s and Vitamin E.
60+ Banned Ingredients
We've banned harmful additives, artificial preservatives and sweeteners, hydrogenated oils and trans fats, and synthetic dyes to keep every meal clean and uncompromisingly healthy.

The Science
Precision nutrition, proven by research
Every Basis formula is built against peer-reviewed clinical evidence, not wellness trends.
High-fiber diets measurably diversify your microbiome in under a month
A Stanford randomized trial found participants eating 30g+ of dietary fiber daily showed significantly greatly gut microbiome diversity and lower inflammatory markers, with effects visible in just 4 weeks.
Fiber per Basis meal
6g+ of 30g daily goal
DASH-style eating lowers systolic blood pressure by up to 11 mmHg
The landmark DASH trial showed that diets centered on vegetables, legumes, and lean protein, rich in potassium and magnesium, produced clinically significant BP reductions without medication, in just 8 weeks.
Omega-3s and B vitamins slow cognitive decline by 40% over 12 weeks
An Oxford meta-analysis of 22 RCTs found that adequate dietary omega-3s combined with B-vitamin-rich whole foods significantly slowed age-related cognitive decline and improved working memory in adults.
