Many of our dishes feature immune-boosting, heart-healthy and nutrient-dense ingredients. “These meals also meet all your daily fiber needs which is important to help you feel full and have good gut health health,” says Angela Fitch, MD, FACP, FOMA, Chair of Jenny Craig’s Science Advisory Board, faculty at Harvard Medical School and President-Elect of the Obesity Medicine Association.
