About Us - EatRx

How we’re different.

EatRx can prescribe Food as Medicine.

We are constantly exploring the frontier of health-sciences innovation – daily, we unearth new discoveries, findings and research to enrich our EatRx knowledgebase.

Using Artificial Intelligence technology, we synthesize this vast pool of learning with your own health information across a range of metrics. The result is a unique prescriptive recommendation that delivers optimum health-building, tuned precisely to your body at every meal. You don’t even have to think about it.

Impact disease-states or performance stats.

From reducing your blood sugar, to reducing your risk of cancer, or striving for optimum athletic performance, EatRx can help. For the first time in history, biochemically tailored food prescriptions are available for you and your family.

EatRx will build specific nutrients into your meal plan that can deliver pharmaceutical results but without pharmaceutical side effects or expense.

In today’s world, EatRx is an idea whose time has come.

What we believe.

You at your best

We support people to be their best selves by prescribing targeted nutrients across individualized health, wellness, and performance needs.

Food and pharma

We believe prescriptions for health should include phytonutrients —not just pharmaceuticals—that heal disease, maximize function, and enhance energy and performance.

Precision

We promote purposeful eating by serving up personalized food recommendations for users and optimized recipes for product partners.

Convenience

We deliver solutions that help people make smart, flavorful choices with less searching and planning.

Inspiration

We celebrate the diversity and community of culinary arts with meal planning and education based on science, culture, and great taste.

Behavior change

We nurture sustainable behavioral change with precise goals, personal insights, recognition, and community.

Trust

We advance transparency of the benefits of food by providing state-of-the-art information with the world’s most trusted platform of food-science data.

No agenda

EatRx has no agenda or point-of-view when it comes to nutrition dogma. Our passion is following the science to cellular impacts for improved health.

Meet Our Team.

Our founders joined to help a friend’s fight with cancer. Our Director of Technology retasked his proprietary search and knowledge acquisition technology to find cancer-fighting nutrients to support her. Her remission led to the realization that with our collective skill sets we could create a transformational company for prescriptive nutrition to help our loved ones and millions of others.

To that end, we’ve assembled a hand-picked all star team, each the very best in their specialty – Medicine, Food Science, Biochemistry, Nutrition, Culinary Science, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, User Interface Design, Ethics and more.
