GENERAL QUESTIONS
About Maven and our approach.
What is Maven Precision Nutrition?
Maven Precision Nutrition is a San Diego based company that provides personalized nutrition services built around your goals, lifestyle, and measured metabolism. Services include RMR metabolism testing, custom nutrition plans, and private nutrition consultations.
What makes your approach different?
Rather than starting with a generic calorie estimate, we start by measuring your unique metabolism, and use that data to guide calorie targets, macros, and personalized meal planning.
Who do you work with?
Our most common clients are women over 50 years old who are experiencing weight gain, muscle loss, and other changes due to aging and hormonol decline. However, we work with anyone who desires to make sustainable changes to their body.
Do you offer virtual services?
Yes. Maven offers remote nutrition consultations and virtual coaching services. Metabolism testing is completed in person in our main office.
Where are you located?
Maven Precision Nutrition is located at 4420 Rainier Avenue, Suite 310, San Diego, CA 92120.
How do I get started?
A good first step is to schedule a metabolism test or a private consultation. From there, we can help you choose the level of nutrition planning or coaching that fits your goals.
METABOLIC TESTING
About the metabolism test.
What is an RMR Metabolism Test?
RMR stands for Resting Metabolic Rate. The test analyzes your breath to measure how many calories your body burns at rest.
How does the test work?
You sit back, relax, and breathe normally into the metabolic testing device. The machine measures your oxygen intake and analyzes your breathing data to calculate the amount of calories your body burns at rest.
How long does the test take?
The breathing portion of the RMR test takes about 10 minutes.
Do I have to breathe in a special way?
No. Normal, relaxed breathing at your customary resting pace is all that is required.
What will I learn from the test?
You learn your Resting Metabolic Rate and gain a clearer picture of your daily energy needs. We can use the result as the starting point for your calorie target and nutrition strategy.
What should I do to prepare for the test?
Preparation matters for an accurate resting measurement. Please abstain from eating food, consuming caffeine/stimulants, or performing exercise for at least 4 hours before your test. Drinking water is allowed.
How much does the metabolism test cost?
The current RMR Metabolism Test is listed at $197 and includes a metabolism analysis, personalized calorie burn profile, and a 30-minute consultation. View current pricing.
NUTRITION PROGRAMS
About meal plans and nutrition.
What is included in a personalized nutrition program?
Depending on the package you choose, your plan can include a personalized calorie burn profile, custom macro blueprint, balanced daily nutrition guidance, and a personalized 3-day or 7-day nutrition plan.
Do you provide meal plans?
Yes. Maven creates personalized 3-day and 7-day nutrition plans designed around your goals, calorie and macro targets, lifestyle, and food preferences.
Will I have to count calories?
Your plan gives you a personalized calorie target and macro structure. How closely you track those numbers can be adapted to the level of structure and coaching that works best for you.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions or allergies?
Your plan can be designed around the dietary restrictions, food preferences, and practical guidelines you provide. Be sure to discuss allergies and medical restrictions during your consultation.
What if I don’t like to cook?
Your plan can be shaped around your lifestyle preferences and the amount of preparation you realistically want to do. The goal is to create a plan you can actually follow.
Can you help with weight gain as well as weight loss?
Yes. Your measured metabolism can be used to establish an appropriate calorie target for weight loss, weight maintenance, or healthy weight gain.
