Nutrition

You might say nutrition is our “secret sauce.” Our emphasis on nutrition is what sets us apart from other meal delivery programs and is at the heart of Food is Medicine and medically tailored meals.

Each week in our kitchen, we create medically tailored meals from scratch that meet evidence-based nutritional guidelines for the illnesses, symptoms, and side effects with which our clients are living. Our meals can be modified hundreds of ways to accommodate our clients’ needs.

The Team Approach

Our client services team, our kitchen team, and registered dietitians all work together to ensure our clients’ health and nutritional needs are being supported in the best way possible.

After a client has been referred by their health care provider, our client services team follows up to further understand their diagnosis and other health challenges. And our registered dietitians and kitchen team work together to create recipes that are nourishing and delicious. Our registered dietitians are available for every client who joins our program.

Nutrition Resources

We offer our clients a full array of resources to help them address health challenges, from nutrition guides to one-pagers on nutrition topics. Our registered dietitians also provide ongoing, comprehensive one-on-one nutrition counseling and education. Additionally, our registered dietitians hold monthly “Food with Heart” conversations, bringing clients together in a virtual format on topics to support health and well-being, and help clients feel less isolated during their health journey.
