Since our founding more than forty years ago, we've always known that food is love. And that food is *medicine*.

In wonderful news, The American Medical Association (AMA) is now in full agreement, having formally advanced “food is medicine” as a core strategy to improve chronic disease outcomes, reduce health disparities, and lower healthcare costs.

At its 2026 Annual Meeting, the AMA specifically recognized interventions like medically tailored meals, medically tailored groceries, and produce prescriptions as evidence-informed approaches that can meaningfully improve health. We are so proud that our low-cost, high-impact intervention has been acknowledged as such a significant part of the healthcare system and such a life-saving tool in Americans' lives.

God's Love We Deliver is so proud to have been a leader in the "food is medicine" movement that has been building for years. From research and evaluation to advocacy at the local, state, and national levels, we have demonstrated that our medically tailored meals and comprehensive nutrition care lower healthcare costs, improve patient satisfaction and, ultimately, change and save lives.

This announcement from the AMA makes clear that:
👉 Nutrition must be integrated into healthcare delivery
👉 Food insecurity must be addressed as a health issue
👉 And “food is medicine” belongs at the center of how we treat and prevent disease

The momentum of our movement continues, and we'll be there, delivering love and delivering food is medicine, every single day.

To fight chronic disease, more doctors are prescribing healthy foods. Learn how the AMA is supporting the concept.
