How can I partner with you?

6 easy ways to partner

Refer patients to us

If you live in Ontario, Canada, you can refer patients to the RxFood clinic for free. If you are not in Ontario, patients can still be referred, but will be charged. Our clinical team will complete a dietary assessment and help guide behavior change that is personalized and effective.

Adopt RxFood for your clinical practice

We want to help you deliver more personalized, efficient, and data-driven care for your patients. With our RxFood Clinical Portal you can see how your patients are eating and communicate with them.

Integrate RxFood into population-based health prevention and promotion programs

We work with your health system to help prevent chronic disease with engaging dietary assessments, challenges, webinars, and more, to help promote wellness.

Support Corporate Wellness

Diet is an important component of staying healthy, but it can also impact mental health and cognitive performance. We can offer nutritional challenges and education sessions to help employees stay well and eat the best way they can to support brain health.

Nutrition Research by Automating Data Collection

We know how time-consuming and expensive it can be to conduct nutrition research. RxFood for research offers extremely accurate and auditable dietary data that can significantly reduce the cost and time to complete your studies.

Personalized Nutrition

RxFood is very interested in collaborating with others to make nutrition understandable and personal. Our robust dietary dataset can be linked to sensors (e.g. continuous glucose monitors or blood pressure cuffs), genetic information, or microbiome/metabolomics for a new approach to care. We provide good feedback and close the loop to promote change.

Our philosophy

“We created RxFood because poor diet is one of the world’s grandest challenges, as we are seeing more children and adults than ever, being diagnosed with obesity and related diseases like diabetes, cardiovascular disease. We need to rethink how we approach nutrition within medicine.”

“RxFood has provided me with so much useful data and insights about my patients’ nutrition. I was able to easily and quickly provide suggestions for my patients that I was previously not able to. I am also considering to use it for data collection in my research studies.”

“I really like RxFood and am so impressed with it. I like RxFood better than other apps that I have tried to use because it shows more relevant and accurate information and most of all, it’s linked to our clinician. We have been logging typical Ethiopian dishes and the automated logging feature was so accurate! I am so impressed!”

FAQs

Is it good for my patients?

Most, if not all, chronic disease guidelines recommend medical nutrition therapy for disease management and prevention. But we know this can be hard to deliver. RxFood helps you deliver evidence-based nutritional recommendations. In our clinical practice, patients really appreciate having the ability to learn how to modify their diet, plus we have the outcomes to prove it makes a difference.

Will it add to my workflow?

We know clinicians are busy, so we designed RxFood to be similar to ordering a diagnostic test or clinical consult. The few seconds it takes to get someone setup are more than made back by reducing the time it takes to take a dietary history. In fact, in our testing, clinicians could complete a more accurate history 3x faster using RxFood. By taking a data-driven approach, more efficient and effective care is possible that will save you time. Plus it supports virtual models of care.

Is it backed by science?

RxFood has, and continues, to be rigorously tested. The accuracy of the technology has been shown to be similar to research grade databases like ESHA. Clinically, after 3 months of use, children with type 1 diabetes managed in a quaternary diabetes center demonstrated improved ability to CHO count and lower A1c (0.8% improvement compared to the control group). Plus, CHO counting tests were done without using the app, signalling learnability. Our reports are based on the latest food guides and strong evidence-based recommendations. And we never stop studying and improving.

Is the data safe?

We take privacy seriously. Your data is never sold and kept on a PHIPA compliant server.
