Preventive nutrition-based, wellness-oriented care ensures you have a plan to keep your body healthy and your taste buds happy. Our MTM program is not just about providing accessible healthy meals, but being of service to individual and community needs for whole health.

We return the dignity of choice with the guidance and care of our registered dietitian (RD), nutritionist, and healthcare providers. Everyone deserves to feel seen and heard, no matter their health status.
Poor nutrition not only contributes to health issues but also exacerbates existing physical and mental health conditions. However, the stressors of life, from health conditions and financial strain to work and childcare responsibilities, can make finding the time to eat well feel impossible.
We make it possible to get the nutritious food you need and want – meals should be designed to revolve around your life, not the other way around. Our MTM program is designed to support independence and give you back the dignity of choice in your food.
With customizable menu options and a seamless meal delivery system, our programs are accessible to a diverse population. Our home-delivered meals are an ideal choice, whether you have mobility challenges or have limited time and energy to prepare meals. Frozen home-delivered meals offer flexibility and convenience while reducing food waste, so you can get back to leading the quality life you deserve.
LifeSpring Home Nutrition combines clinical nutrition expertise with chef-crafted meals to support recovery, independence, and long-term wellness. Every meal is designed to reduce the stress of meal planning while delivering high-quality nutrition directly to your door.
Each meal plan is thoughtfully developed by registered dietitians to support specific medical conditions, dietary needs, and recovery goals. This personalized approach helps ensure clients receive balanced nutrition that promotes healing and overall well-being.
Our chef-prepared meals prove that healthy food can be both nourishing and enjoyable. Using high-quality ingredients and flavorful recipes, we create delicious meals that make healthy eating easier to maintain.
Proper nutrition plays a critical role after a hospital stay, rehabilitation, or skilled nursing care. Our medically tailored meals support the recovery process, giving clients the nutrients they need to rebuild strength and reduce the risk of hospital readmission.
With dependable delivery throughout Los Angeles County and Orange County, clients can count on fresh meals arriving when they need them. This reliable service removes the hassle of grocery shopping and meal prep, making it easier to focus on health and daily life.
Medically tailored meals offer a wealth of benefits for high-risk clients with specific nutritional needs and busy caregivers who need a break from the daily stress of meal planning. Through our medically tailored meal program, we give clients and their loved ones peace of mind with stress-free meals that reduce health risks and improve health outcomes for long-term wellness.
Our food-is-medicine coalition intervention supports improved health outcomes for a variety of diet-related health conditions. If you’re living with chronic conditions like congestive heart failure, diabetes, renal disease, or chronic kidney disease, medically supportive food can ensure your health needs are met for a greater quality of life.
Some of the ways medically tailored meals support improved health outcomes for chronic conditions include:
Access to consistent, high-quality nutrition and diet-specific meals helps stabilize chronic conditions by ensuring you have the right food for your specific health needs. Stabilizing chronic conditions reduces the risk of health complications that lead to hospitalization and re-hospitalization. Clients and their loved ones can manage health conditions safely from the comfort of their home without the fear and stress of a hospital stay, revolving door readmissions, or high-risk complications.
Our meal-delivery services also assure personalized nutrition from an experienced registered dietitian and nutritionist for meal plans that align with your specific needs. Every meal plan is customized to align with the health plan your care team has built to meet your dietary needs. Not only do we offer customized meals for your specific health needs, but we also support dietary needs based on other factors, such as ethnicity and religion.
Chronic conditions don’t only impact the individual but also affect the whole family, from caregivers to dependents. With medically tailored home-delivered meals, we provide more than healthy food; we provide community supports that care for the whole family. The ease of heating nutritious prepared meals removes the burden of planning, shopping, and cooking for a stress-free eating experience. Instead of having your life revolve around meals, we help you shed the burden of food obstacles to have meals revolve around your life again.
Once a week, you can expect to receive 14 customized meals, either picked by you or your RD to match your nutritional needs. Each week, you’ll receive your meals from the same delivery driver on a specific day that works for you and the driver’s schedule.
MTM program eligibility is based on your specific health conditions and needs. If deemed appropriate, your healthcare providers will put in a referral for you to receive home-delivered meals.
Following approval from the eligibility review, you’ll take a nutrition assessment with a registered dietitian. The RD will evaluate your dietary needs and create a meal plan tailored to your specific health needs and preferences.
Once your meal plan is built, prepared meals will be delivered directly to your home each week. Your meals will arrive in protective liners that can be stored in your freezer until you need them. If you’re not able to be home at the time of your meal delivery, your meals will be kept frozen in a silver bubble wrap bag with dry ice at your designated drop-off location.
Our personalized approach ensures your meal plan is tailored to meet your current and future health needs. We know your health plan and needs may change or evolve over time, so we provide customizable menu options that can be adjusted to support you at every stage of your life.
Whether you’re living with chronic conditions like cardiovascular and kidney conditions, diabetes, and obesity, or mental health and behavioral health conditions, we can support you. Our medically tailored meals program offers a wide range of nutritional support options to meet your specific dietary needs or preferences.
We provide prepared meals and beverages that meet the dietary needs of clients living with several heart diseases and cardiovascular conditions. Some of the heart-related conditions we support include congestive heart failure, hypertension, and high cholesterol.
We provide nutritious and balanced meals to support blood sugar management for diabetes and your overall metabolic health, including cholesterol, blood pressure, and weight management.
Weight-related conditions and obesity often come with other health challenges, including high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Our customizable menu options support nutritious, healthy meals for overlapping health conditions and sustainable weight management.
We provide nutritious, real meal plans designed to manage chronic kidney disease, overall support kidney function, and reduce strain on your kidneys. Whether you’re managing early-stage renal conditions or require dialysis, we have low-carbohydrate, sodium, and potassium entrée options to match your meal delivery needs.
With proper nutrition support, you can improve your mood and energy to address mental health and behavioral health conditions. When you don’t have to worry about what foods to buy to stay healthy, trying to meal plan, when to go grocery shopping, or how to find time to cook, it reduces decision fatigue. You feel less stressed and anxious about managing your condition and staying consistent with your diet. Feeling less overwhelmed reduces the number of poor mental health days, and nutritious, balanced food means less depressive periods and more energy and motivation to thrive in your daily life.
Trying to deal with chronic health conditions, work or school obligations, and family responsibilities can feel overwhelming. This is when food and diet get pushed onto the back burner. If food and diet has become a consistent struggle, it may be time to look at options for medically tailored meals.
It’s time to seek help from an MTM program if you have limited mobility, struggle with severe fatigue, or have time constraints like work and caregiver responsibilities that make cooking challenging.
Trying to manage multiple chronic conditions at the same time is not only overwhelming, but it also adds another level of complexity to making healthy nutrition choices. Our nutrition services give you the support you need to manage comorbidities with nutrition education and prepared meals that take away the pressure of trying to meal plan alone.
Living with food insecurity or in a food desert means a lack of access to affordable and nutritious food that significantly impacts physical and mental health outcomes. MTM programs help prevent chronic health conditions like diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular issues, obesity, malnutrition, and delayed development for growing children.
Medically tailored meals can be an invaluable intervention following a hospital stay due to a serious illness or chronic health condition. Returning to your life after a hospitalization can be made more difficult by recovery challenges like mobility issues, post-surgery pain, or trying to learn how to manage a chronic health condition.
During the recovery process, medically tailored meals provide additional support to help you adjust to temporary or long-term health changes. In addition to its effectiveness in recovery support, meal delivery also helps prevent 30-day readmissions to the hospital for the same condition or a related complication.
Our food-is-medicine model not only gives you access to affordable home-delivered meals but also helps address the global healthcare crisis around food. Through our MTM program, we recognize and respond to the notion that food is an integral part of health, wellness, and community.
Improving health outcomes doesn’t start and end with healthy food – it’s about giving people the tools to make choices about their food, health, and life that support lasting wellness. One of the initiatives in the food is medicine coalition that supports building a foundation for autonomy over your body is nutrition education. With nutrition education, you learn how your food choices impact your health and wellness for greater awareness and motivation to effect positive change in your habits and lifestyle.
We work in tandem with primary care and other specialists, such as registered dietitians and nutritionists, to make nutritious meals that align with health plan needs.
We work with community health initiatives like the California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) to provide community support that reaches in-need community members across counties. Through CaIAIM, we have partnered with Medi-Cal to invest in whole-person care by integrating health care services and social services. With integrated care initiatives, we’ve made nutritious food accessible to a broad spectrum of needs, from chronic health conditions and skilled nursing facility residents to community shelters and other high-risk populations.
We value meeting our clients where their nutrition needs are, including acknowledging and responding to diverse cultural needs. Our meals are designed to reflect the different backgrounds and preferences of our diverse community, from Vietnamese to Halal options.
MTMs are nutritious, prepared, home-delivered meals designed to manage chronic health conditions, reduce hospital readmissions, and improve health outcomes.

If you qualify for MTM, you can receive a referral from your primary care provider, health plan provider, or caseworker.
Meals are made fresh and then flash frozen to store in your freezer until you’re ready to eat.
You’ll collaborate with our registered dietitian and nutritionist to build a meal plan that matches your nutritional needs and preferences.
You can receive medically tailored meals for up to 12 weeks or 90 days. However, your MTM program can be extended beyond 12 weeks to 90-day increments, if deemed medically necessary.
Yes, MTMs contribute to improved health outcomes, such as reduced hospitalizations and readmissions, improved condition management, and medication adherence.
