This new funding will go towards expanding the RxDiet team, strengthening its grocery network, and bringing the services to more healthcare payers. The low-cost digital version coming out this year is what insurers can afford to offer to all members. Not leaving anyone behind in the fight against disease with personalised nutrition is core to the mission at RxDiet.
“We want food to be at the forefront of medicine,” says co-founder, Roman Kalista, “Using food to treat chronic conditions is often cost-prohibitive, and RxDiet has lowered the bar significantly for healthcare payers to adopt a program that drives unprecedented engagement, clinical outcomes, and member satisfaction. This funding round will enable us to reach more patients in the United States.”
Investor Jia Lin from Giant Ventures commented, “RxDiet is a game changer for healthy eating. As the disease burden from chronic conditions grows, RxDiet’s holistic solution serves a critical function not only in managing and reversing these conditions but also preventing them. We are excited about RxDiet as their highly scalable AI platform breaks down the barriers of healthy food making it equally affordable, personalized, and engaging for someone in urban New York as it is for someone in rural Georgia.”
