Long-Term Results
Happy, healthy humans
Meet with a registered dietitian via telehealth
Members work with a dietitian to define health goals and create a personalized plan. Dietitians assess food insecurity status and get eligible members enrolled in SNAP. Then, members get set up on our mobile and web-based app so they have day-to-day support.
Create personalized meal plan
Members choose from thousands of recipes based on the dietary restrictions, preferences, and budget for themselves and their families. Then, they create a meal plan and transfer ingredients to their grocery cart.
Deliver food right to your door
Members can order groceries for pickup or delivery directly in the app - Walmart, Amazon Fresh, or Instacart. If they're short on time, they can grab food from a local restaurant with Grubhub and use the "avocado" icon to find healthy options. Members can also access medically tailored meals.
Monthly check-ins
With regular check-in's with a registered dietitian, members stay on track and adjust as they go to maximize results.
We're happy to answer any questions and give you more information about how we may be able to support your population!
