Making CT Healthy
At MLC Nutrition, we’re more than a meal delivery service—we’re a healthcare partner focused on changing lives through medically tailored nutrition and integrative technology. Founded on the principle that food is a foundational element of health, MLC Nutrition combines biosciences, culinary expertise, and real-time data to empower patients and clinicians with actionable insights.
Our Mission
To make optimal health accessible by bringing Food as Medicine to the forefront of care for all. We support patients, families, and healthcare providers by delivering science-backed nutrition that addresses the root causes of chronic disease, reduces hospital readmissions, and fosters long-term wellness.
Our Vision
A healthcare landscape where nutrition is a key element of every patient’s journey. We envision a future where personalized, data-driven nutrition is seamlessly integrated into patient care, resulting in healthier populations, reduced healthcare costs, and stronger communities.
What We Do
- Medically Tailored Meals: We develop nutrient-dense, condition-specific meals designed to address each patient’s unique health needs, from managing chronic conditions to supporting maternal health.
-
Programs for Community Wellness: Through initiatives like Meals for Moms and the Mood and Food program, we’re addressing health equity by ensuring that communities disproportionately affected by food insecurity and chronic disease have access to the nutrition and support they deserve.
-
Research and Development: We’re continually expanding our partnerships with leading institutions, including UConn Health and the Department of Social Services, to develop programs that advance healthcare’s understanding of Food as Medicine.
Our Values
Health Equity: We believe everyone deserves access to high-quality, nutritious food, regardless of background or circumstance. Our programs address social determinants of health, creating a pathway to wellness for underserved communities.
Patient-Centered Care: Every meal, service, and technology we develop is centered around the patient’s journey. We strive to provide personalized, impactful care that addresses real needs and empowers individuals to take charge of their health.
Innovation and Impact: By integrating biosciences, technology, and nutrition, we’re redefining the role of food in healthcare. Our commitment to innovation fuels our mission to make measurable, sustainable health impacts.
