5 weeks into medical school, Jack, our founder, met a patient undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. She came into clinic experiencing 26 lbs of weight loss over 9 days. Her son expressed how side effects made her favorite meals taste like dirt, Ensure gave her diarrhea, and he’s running out of ways to help her eat.

Jack asked her, “How can we get you to eat again?”

She replied, “All I want is to taste real food again.”

Jack quickly realized this frustration was shared by 1.6 million Americans diagnosed with cancer each year. Many are told to try Ensure to maintain the weight required to tolerate therapy, but within a week, they quickly give tired of the same 3 flavors. A trip to CVS yields dozens of options with cryptic manufacturers’ labels containing unpronounceable, artificial ingredients.

Since then, he has set out to create nutritional solutions with ingredients that you can see, touch, and easily pronounce - real foods.
