Food As Medicine

Inspiring Action in

With a vision of changing the world’s health through food, bitewell explores benefits of food-as-medicine alongside challenges of the American food supply in the cutting-edge documentary on Reuters.

Food touches every life and every disease. A diet of whole, minimally processed foods has been linked time and time again with longer lifespan, longer healthspan, and a reduced risk for chronic disease – and the opposite does the reverse.
 

So, how have we gotten to a place where 33% of adults globally are suffering from multiple chronic diet-related diseases? Diseases that cause 17,000,000 deaths per year in people under 70 and, according to the World Economic Forum, could cost $47 trillion annually by 2030.

​

The answer is both simple and horrendously complex. At a headline level, we’ve stopped thinking about food as a foundational pillar of health.
