What if I have dietary restrictions?
Centr meal plans can be tailored to your dietary needs. Set your preferences in the Centr Coach app, and your meal plan and recipe recommendations will be filtered to match.
Supported preferences
Diet types: Vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, or no restrictions.
Ingredient restrictions: Gluten-free and dairy-free.
Allergies and intolerances: Note foods you need to avoid, such as nuts, shellfish, or soy.
You can select more than one. For example, choosing vegan and gluten-free will only show recipes that are both, which may mean fewer options.
If you have a serious allergy or a medical condition like celiac disease: Filters help narrow down recipes, but always check each recipe’s ingredients and product labels yourself before cooking. For medical dietary needs, check with your doctor or a registered dietitian.
Setting your preferences
You’ll choose your dietary preferences during the FitQuiz when you first set up the app. To change them later, go to Profile in the Centr Coach app and update your dietary settings. Your meal plan and recommendations will update automatically.
Meal plans for every goal
Every fitness goal has meal plans that work with each dietary type, adjusted to your training needs. For example, Build Strength and Gain Muscle plans include extra calories and protein from plant or animal sources, depending on your preferences. Vegan and vegetarian plans are designed to provide enough protein to support your training, including muscle growth.
Making the meal plan work for you
You don’t have to follow your meal plan exactly. Some recipes suggest ingredient swaps, and you can mix and match recipes from different meal plans, skip ones that don’t suit you, or use them as inspiration for your own meals. Looking for more ideas? The Centr Community group on Facebook is a great place to swap recipes with other members.
What if my restriction isn’t listed?
Start with the closest preference, then check each recipe’s ingredients and adapt or skip ones that don’t work for you. You can also follow Centr’s workouts alongside your own nutrition plan, or work with a registered dietitian for personalized guidance.
