KEY TAKEAWAY

The short version.

  1. 01

    The Zepbound, Mounjaro, Wegovy and Ozempic prescribing information says the weekly injection can be given with or without meals, and none of those labels lists edamame, or any other specific food, as something to avoid.

  2. 02

    In GLP AI, “1 cup shelled edamame” scored 100/100 (A+, Excellent): 188 kcal, 18.4 g protein and 8.1 g fiber.

  3. 03

    For that log, what helped: high protein for the calories, fiber supports fullness, lower sugar, lower sodium.

  4. 04

    The Meal Score is calculated per 100 g, so portion size alone does not move it: in our test, half a cup and two cups of grapes both scored 62. A smaller portion changes the calories, protein and fiber you actually get.

THE QUICK ANSWERS

Edamame on a GLP-1 — FAQs.

Can you eat edamame on Zepbound, Mounjaro, Wegovy and Ozempic?+

The Zepbound, Mounjaro, Wegovy and Ozempic prescribing information says the weekly injection can be given with or without meals, and none of those labels lists edamame, or any other specific food, as something to avoid. How edamame sits with you personally can change with your dose and the days after a shot, so treat this as food information, not clearance from your clinician. In GLP AI, “1 cup shelled edamame” scored 100/100 (A+, Excellent).

What is the GLP-1 Meal Score for edamame?+

It depends on the version. We logged 3: “1 cup shelled edamame” scored 100 (A+); “Edamame in pods with sea salt” scored 100 (A+); “Dry-roasted edamame, quarter cup” scored 76 (A). The score runs 0–100 and weighs protein, fiber, sugar, sodium, saturated fat and how processed the food is.

How much protein and fiber is in edamame?+

GLP AI estimated “1 cup shelled edamame” at 188 kcal, 18.4 g protein, 8.1 g fiber, 13.8 g carbohydrate and 3.4 g sugar.

Does eating a smaller portion of edamame change the score?+

Not by itself. The GLP-1 Meal Score compares nutrients per 100 g, so the same food scores the same at half the amount; in our test, half a cup and two cups of grapes both scored 62. What changes is the total: calories, protein and fiber scale with the amount, which matters when appetite is low. Two logs of a similar food can still land a few points apart when the app reads the food differently, for example how processed it judges it to be.

What makes edamame score higher or lower?+

Across what we logged, “1 cup shelled edamame” scored highest at 100 and “Dry-roasted edamame, quarter cup” lowest at 76. The top version gained from high protein for the calories, fiber supports fullness, lower sugar, lower sodium. The lowest gained from high protein for the calories, fiber supports fullness and lost points for higher sodium, moderate saturated fat.
