Yesterday was World Food Day 🌍, and this year’s theme hits close to home for us: “Food for a better life and a better future.” According to the @UN, there are 733 million people facing hunger globally, and over 2.8 billion people who can’t afford a healthy diet. We believe everyone should have access to nutritious food to lead a healthy life. And while these numbers are daunting, we can all make an impact if we start working in even one community. At Bento, we are working hard to connect our most vulnerable communities in California and beyond with medically tailored groceries – addressing both food insecurity and chronic health conditions. We’re committed to making nutritious food accessible to all, one grocery order at a time. #WorldFoodDay #FoodAsMedicine

We're honored to work with HealthX Ventures . See their recent interview with our CEO & Co-Founder Mick Ebeling , where he shares how Bento's food-as-medicine tech platform enables our members to reduce their food insecurity and improve their health outcomes. #HealthTech #FoodAsMedicine

The right food curated for an individual's disease risk factors can certainly serve as medicine. In addition, at Bento (gobento.com) we see that the right foods provided to low income community members in a convenient and stigma free way will not only close their nutrition security gap, but can also serve as a powerful bridge needed to connect those community members with critical healthcare services and resources. https://lnkd.in/g2nbEyYz
