How? The meals in reBUILD are delivered frozen to maintain maximum freshness. Upon delivery, keep your meals frozen until consuming, by keeping them in your freezer. When you're ready to start - thaw the meals for the upcoming reBUILD day in your fridge overnight.

Yes some are. We created reBUILD for you to support your health from the inside out. Your delivery will consist of 10 frozen meals (5 lunches & 5 dinners) and the remaining meals, snacks, and add-ons at room temperature. Store your frozen meals in the freezer. The program is designed to be consumed within a 5-day period to reBUILD your gut health. For maximum convenience your meals are delivered frozen so you may enjoy the meals at your own schedule, if preferred.

Building a healthy gut is a long process. This 5-day program will start you on your journey, and we encourage to repeat the program 1-2x monthly to support digestive health.
