How can Factor meals support weight loss?

While our meals are not designed specifically for weight loss, they can help you meet your nutrition-related goals depending on how you combine our meals with the other food you enjoy in a day. Our meals can make portion-controlled, balanced eating a consistent part of your routine.

For more direction on how to fit our meals into your weight-loss plan, click here to schedule a complimentary nutrition coaching session with a dietitian from our nutrition team.

How much sodium is in Factor meals?
The sodium content of our meals can be viewed on the nutrition facts label. Currently, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends consuming 2,300 mg of sodium or less per day for healthy adults. Factor’s meals average around 800 mg of sodium per meal, which can help you stay within this recommendation. We always recommend speaking with your doctor prior to ordering our meals to ensure we are a good fit!
What are the benefits of Factor?
Factor takes the stress out of healthy living. We provide fresh, ready-prepared meals that support even the busiest of lifestyles! We shop, prep, cook, and deliver to your door for you so you can experience the benefits of clean eating without the hassle. When you are fit, you look great, feel amazing and have the energy and focus you need. As an added bonus, our team of dietitians is always available for extra accountability to help you crush your goals with our nutrition coaching programs!
Can I cancel my subscription at any time?

You certainly can! We really try to make it easy to manage your subscription, so if you need to take a break from our delicious meals or you decide that Factor isn’t a fit for you, all you need to do is log into your account and you can cancel your subscription there.

While you can cancel at any time, canceling your subscription does not cancel existing orders. If you cancel your subscription before the weekly cutoff time indicated on your My Menu page, no automated order will be placed for delivery the following week. If you cancel your subscription after the weekly cutoff time and an automated order was placed, that order cannot be canceled and you will receive it the following week. After that, however, you will not incur further charges or receive future deliveries from Factor if your subscription is canceled.

COVID-19

The health of our customers and the safety of our food has always been the #1 priority for Factor and while COVID-19 is very much top of mind to all of us these days, it is only one of many food safety concerns that the ready-to-eat meals businesses (such as restaurants, grocery stores and Factor) manage every day.

We take this responsibility seriously and always meet or exceed the ongoing guidance from the experts at CDC, FDA, USDA and Health Departments across all aspects of our business and are taking extra precautions to provide further assurance to our customers during this current pandemic.

  • Our kitchen and production facility undergoes a full, “deep” sanitation daily as well as multiple sanitation cleaning of all equipment throughout the day.
  • Employees are given a health screening as they arrive at work and are sent home if they are ill; all employees properly wash their hands every time they enter a food production area and always wear gloves and masks when they handle food. They are provided clean coats, which are changed at specific times during each day. Hair and beard nets have always been worn throughout our production facility with 100% compliance.
  • The Factor facility is permitted by the Health Department whose standards mirror or exceed those of the USDA, FDA and Illinois Department of Health. We operate with robust quality and food safety protocols which are designed specifically for our facility. And of course, our kitchen adheres to USDA cooking/cooling temperature requirements.
  • Employees who pack your weekly order wear masks and gloves when handling the packaged meals and equipment is regularly wiped down and sanitized.

    Here is a link to the FDA's frequently asked questions site regarding COVID-19.

    Please don't hesitate to reach out to our Customer Experience Team with any questions by calling 888.573.5727.

To better aid our investigation process, we may ask for additional information regarding your order (i.e. recipe names, pictures, delivery and packaging information).
