The Food as Medicine movement is gaining momentum, particularly around tech-enabled nutrition support, according to this recently published report from Rock Health. Here are our top two takeaways from the report, along with Season Health's approach for solving these challenges. 1. Consumers want to eat healthier, but need guidance: According to the report, 50% of consumers find it hard to understand what foods are best for their health and 68% receive conflicting information about what foods they should eat or avoid. How do we solve for this at Season? Through personalized nutrition care from our nationwide network of Registered Dietitians. 2. Payers want to control rising costs of diet-related disease: Rock Health reports that payers are grappling with the costs of treating the nearly 50% of Americans with diet-related disease while addressing rapidly increasing food insecurity, which is now the reality in 12.8% of U.S. households. How do we solve for this at Season? Our programs allow payers to drive behavior change in their patient populations by shifting patients’ relationship with food, improving health outcomes and quality of life, and offering an alternative to expensive medications like GLP-1s. Read the full report below and reach out to us to discuss how we are connecting the dots and driving outcomes by pairing clinical guidance with tech-enabled access to food for patients nationwide.

The The Aspen Institute Releases 2024 Strategy to Integrate Food is Medicine into U.S. Healthcare System Food & Society at the Aspen Institute recently released the 2024 Food is Medicine Action Plan. The Action Plan highlights the important role that nutrition plays in health and aims to provide a strategy to integrate Food is Medicine interventions into the United States healthcare system. Poor diet is now the leading risk factor for death in the U.S., surpassing tobacco use. According to the Action Plan, an estimated 60 percent of the U.S. adult population suffers from at least one chronic health condition, and those that are diet-related are among the most prevalent. The Action Plan provides an overview of the published, peer-reviewed research on three categories of Food is Medicine interventions: medically tailored meals, medically tailored groceries, and produce prescriptions. The Action Plan states that to build on existing findings and strengthen the case for widespread integration into the healthcare system, healthcare providers, academic researchers, and policymakers are seeking more purposeful research. The Action Plan aims to respond to this need by providing 18 cross-sector research recommendations. #sustainability #foodsystems #foodasmedicine #nutrition #diet #healthandwellness #healthandwellbeing #healthcare #seniorliving Reported by Food Tank

Incorporating targeted food and nutrition strategies into healthcare on a national level will improve health and quality of life, reduce work for hospitals, and cut healthcare costs! There is a huge opportunity to shift from curative to preventative health care practices. Prescribing fruit and vegetables could reduce a raft of lifestyle-related diseases and particularly benefit those who are already experiencing food insecurity. Given the sustainability benefits (reduced GHG emissions, land-use change, water use etc) of fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes etc, its a win win for planetary and human health. #opportunity #sustainability #health #foodsecurity #foodsystems #food #climatechange #healthcare https://lnkd.in/eaHkHgm4

Eating the wrong kind of food can make us sick, not just in the short term, but for a lifetime. Good food can do miracles... "According to research data presented in the report, national implementation of Medically Tailored Meals (MTMs) in Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance for patients with both a diet-related condition and limited ability to perform activities of daily living could avert approximately 1.6 million hospitalizations and result in an estimated net savings of $13.6 billion in health care costs in the first year alone, after accounting for implementation costs." #futureoffood #futureofretail
