Food as Medicine Program
The Food as Medicine Program integrates specialized nutrition and healthy eating practices into healthcare to promote better health and manage chronic conditions. It emphasizes using nutritious foods—such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins—as a form of preventative care and treatment, complementing traditional medical approaches. The goal is to improve patient outcomes, reduce healthcare costs, and empower individuals to make informed dietary choices that support long-term wellness. This approach involves collaboration between healthcare providers and nutrition professionals to tailor dietary plans that address specific health needs.
