Whether you want to lose weight, understand how food affects your blood sugar or just get food out of your head, Bolus covers it all: what to eat, help at the supermarket, and support from a healthy eating coach any hour. Then it makes eating well a weekly habit that finally sticks.
A diagnosis, or a scary blood test, and the advice is “cut down on sugar and carbs, and lose some weight.” But by 6pm you’re tired, the fridge is random, and you don’t fancy deciding. So eating well slips down the list, again. Food ends up taking up head space all day and you still don’t know if you’re getting it right.
The week’s meals are planned, and you know exactly what to buy. You know what you’re eating tonight, there’s a faster option if the night falls apart, and a coach to ask when you’re stuck. You eat well more often, without counting anything or thinking about food all day.
Most weeks fall apart in the same spot: you’re busy, nothing’s planned, and the healthy option just isn’t there. Bolus gives the week a rhythm that holds up anyway. Your week’s planned out, you know what to grab from the shop, and there’s a coach to ask when you’re stuck. Stick with it and it starts to feel properly like yours.
Breakfasts, lunches and dinners, already decided around how you like to eat. Skim it, tweak anything, done in about a minute.
Bolus supports you to buy the right food for the week from your normal UK supermarket, so it’s all in the house. You just cook what’s there.
Running late, too tired, or not sure what to do? Ask your coach any hour and swap to a faster option, without rebuilding the rest of the week.
Once a week your coach checks in on how the week went and how your nutrients are stacking up, the protein, fibre and veg you’re actually getting. Then it shapes the next week around that, so each week builds on the last.
It’s built into the app, the app itself answering, not a person on shift. When it gets hard, you’re never stuck on your own. Ask anything, any hour, with no appointment and no judgement: what to make when you’re shattered and haven’t shopped, how to get back on track after a weekend off, or whether tonight’s swap still works. You get a straight, kind answer, not a lecture.
“Eat healthier” is not a plan. Bolus gives you concrete, filling meals built around everyday cooking and the Eatwell Guide, the NHS’s official healthy eating advice: vegetables, beans and pulses, higher-fibre carbs where they fit, fish, eggs, meat, yoghurt and olive oil from your usual supermarket. No shakes. No bars. No whole food groups cut out by default. You set how you like to eat, how much time you have, and who you’re cooking for, and Bolus turns that into a week you can shop for, cook from, and change when plans do.
Real weeks go sideways. You’re late, you’re shattered, you’re eating out. With most plans, that’s the moment you fall off and feel bad about it. Bolus is built for exactly that moment: switch to something faster, or skip the night, and the rest of the week still holds. No replanning, no guilt.
Once a week, a short review asks how the meals went: what you cooked, what you swapped, what you’d make again. That’s the only check-in. From it, the next week quietly reshapes itself around the food that fits your life, so the plan feels more like yours and less like a diet as the weeks go on.
You get real structure to your week and a coach you can actually reach, any hour, no appointment and no waiting list. So you always know what to eat, and you’ve got backup on the hard days, without logging every gram.
No calorie counting, no macro logging, no photographing plates, no diary to fill in. Once a week you tell Bolus how meals went and what you’d cook again. That’s it.
Bolus takes care of the food side day to day, slotting in around whatever your care team already has you doing. And your data stays yours: private, and never sold to advertisers.
Most food apps stop at the plan. Bolus is built for the harder part: the shopping, the swaps, the hard nights and the week after that, so eating well becomes something you actually keep doing.
Tell Bolus how you like to eat and it does the rest: a week of real meals, help with the shopping, and a coach in your corner from day one. No calorie counting, no food diary, no waiting list. It’s on iPhone now, with Android next.
