This engaging session is on “Food is Medicine”—a growing, evidence-based movement transforming healthcare. With robust research linking dietary interventions to prevention and management of chronic diseases, this approach is gaining traction across clinical disciplines. In Occupational and Environmental Medicine (OEM), food-as-medicine strategies offer innovative tools to reduce metabolic risks, support return-to-work outcomes, and enhance workforce resilience. Discover how integrating medically tailored meals, produce prescriptions, and nutrition counseling can improve employee health and lower healthcare costs. Learn from real-world applications and explore opportunities to bring this powerful paradigm into your OEM practice
  • Identify the current evidence base supporting food-as-medicine interventions for the prevention and management of chronic diseases, with a focus on relevance to occupational and environmental medicine (OEM) populations.
  • Describe practical strategies to integrate food-as-medicine approaches—such as medically tailored meals, produce prescriptions, and nutrition education—into OEM practice to improve worker health outcomes and reduce healthcare-related costs.
