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 green beans, or any other specific food, as something to avoid.

  2. 02

    In GLP AI, “1 cup steamed green beans” scored 100/100 (A+, Excellent): 44 kcal, 2.4 g protein and 4.3 g fiber.

  3. 03

    For that log, what helped: solid protein density, 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

Green beans on a GLP-1 — FAQs.

Can you eat green beans 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 green beans, or any other specific food, as something to avoid. How green beans sit 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 steamed green beans” scored 100/100 (A+, Excellent).

What is the GLP-1 Meal Score for green beans?+

It depends on the version. We logged 3: “1 cup steamed green beans” scored 100 (A+); “Green beans with almonds” scored 95 (A+); “Green bean casserole, half cup” scored 34 (F). The score runs 0–100 and weighs protein, fiber, sugar, sodium, saturated fat and how processed the food is.

How much protein and fiber are in green beans?+

GLP AI estimated “1 cup steamed green beans” at 44 kcal, 2.4 g protein, 4.3 g fiber, 9.9 g carbohydrate and 4.1 g sugar.

Does eating a smaller portion of green beans 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 green beans score higher or lower?+

Across what we logged, “1 cup steamed green beans” scored highest at 100 and “Green bean casserole, half cup” lowest at 34. The top version gained from solid protein density, fiber supports fullness, lower sugar, lower sodium. The lowest lost points for low protein for the calories, moderate sodium, moderate saturated fat.

How do I check my own green beans in GLP AI?+
