Essential: A Food is Medicine podcast centers the lived experiences of clients, caregivers, clinicians, and frontline staff to explore the foundations of the modern food is medicine movement. Through human-first storytelling, the series illustrates why medically tailored meals (MTMs) and nutrition interventions are not a “nice to have,” but services evolved over decades to become essential, foundational components of healthcare. This series, hosted by Alissa Wassung, executive director of the Food is Medicine Coalition (FIMC), highlights leaders across various aspects of food is medicine services, amplifying fieldwide experts innovating in FIM service.
