We’re proud to welcome Toyin Ajayi to Foodsmart’s Board of Directors. A board-certified Family Medicine physician and the Co-founder and CEO of Cityblock Health, Dr. Ajayi brings deep experience serving Medicaid and dually eligible populations through innovative value-based care models. Her appointment reflects a shared belief: nutrition must be embedded directly into healthcare infrastructure, not treated as an add-on benefit. At Foodsmart, we’re building the leading foodcare platform in the U.S., helping health plans and providers combine clinical nutrition care, behavior change tools, and food benefits to improve outcomes while lowering healthcare costs. We’re excited for Dr. Ajayi’s partnership as we continue scaling foodcare for the populations who need it most.

It’s been obvious for decades: food is one of the most powerful drivers of health. This morning’s Newsweek analysis by Alexis Kayser highlights the growing momentum behind “Food as Medicine” programs across US hospitals and health systems, but it also surfaces a critical challenge: most programs struggle to scale. Many rely on hospital pilots, philanthropy, or short-term grants. They show promising results, but sustainability, workforce capacity, and reimbursement remain barriers. The next phase of this movement will require something different. Not isolated programs. Not one-off food distributions. But integrated nutrition care that works inside the healthcare system itself. At Foodsmart, we call this Foodcare — combining clinical nutrition care, personalized food access, and measurable outcomes into scalable healthcare infrastructure. Because if food truly is medicine, it should be treated like it: - Delivered consistently. - Integrated into care. - Available to people who need it most. The momentum behind Food as Medicine is real. The opportunity now is to make it sustainable, scalable, and equitable. For health plans and healthcare leaders thinking about how to operationalize Foodcare programs for their populations, we’d love to collaborate and share what we’re learning. https://lnkd.in/eAAY-5sF

💊 GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy are transforming obesity care – but medication alone isn’t enough to deliver lasting results.That’s why we’re expanding access to our GLP-1 Companion Care program. Our integrated foodcare approach – which combines medical nutrition therapy, telenutrition, and food-as-medicine benefits – has now been validated to save $2,000 per GLP-1 patient annually through improved adherence, reduced side effects, and sustained weight and fat loss. As CMS expands GLP-1 access for Medicare and Medicaid members, pairing medication with nutrition and lifestyle support is no longer just beneficial – it’s essential. Without it, patients risk muscle and bone loss, poor adherence, and weight regain after treatment. “GLP-1s are amazing spark plugs for weight loss – but pairing them with foodcare is essential to make those results last,” said Dr. Jason Langheier, Founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Foodsmart. Foodsmart’s GLP-1 Companion Care program helps members: ✅ Reduce treatment drop-off and side effects ✅Maintain muscle and bone health during weight loss ✅Build healthy habits that sustain outcomes long-term By coupling medications with personalized nutrition care, we can help create lasting improvements in health outcomes and healthcare costs.
