You are what you eat, so when you eat healthy, you become healthy. That’s the message from a new program called FoodRx at Medstar Health. We talk with Angela Roberson, a registered dietician for the Collaborative Care Program at Good Samaritan Hospital, and the lead dietician for FoodRx. Giving patients access to nutrition education,as well as full meals has made a marked difference in her work, "It’s really been a game changer. FoodRx is really the first of its kind in this region, and it’s saving lives."

Plus, we hear from one of FoodRx’s partners, Nekeisia Booyer of the Maryland Food Bank, about why teaming up with healthcare systems to regularly deliver healthy food to patients is all part of the mission.
