Clinicians have told patients what to eat for as long as there has been medicine. There has never been a way to fill that order. Prado is building the first and only way for clinicians to prescribe food as medicine and get it to the patient's door.
Diet drives more chronic disease than almost anything else a clinician can change. The evidence that food works as treatment is strong and getting stronger. What has been missing is the plumbing: a way to write the prescription, turn it into the right meals, and deliver them.
That is what we are building. Every plan signed on Prado is a patient who gets more than a handout.

If a clinician can order a drug for a condition, they should be able to order the diet that treats it too.
Every plan is owned and signed by a licensed clinician. We power the prescription. We never write it.
Clinical accuracy and compliance are part of the product. If it wouldn't hold up to a clinician or an auditor, we don't ship it.
We are building something that should reach every patient whose care depends on what they eat.
We are a small team and we hire carefully. If you think you can make a difference here and you care about making food part of medicine, we want to hear from you.
