Special Diets and Health Conditions

Special Diets and Health Conditions

Millions of people experience health problems impacting their diet. Some people, including seniors, unhoused individuals, and those with disabilities, may have difficulty maintaining proper nutrition. According to the Permanente Journal, “Malnutrition and unintentional weight loss contribute to progressive decline in health, reduced physical and cognitive functional status, increased utilization of health care services, premature institutionalization, and increased mortality.” LifeSpring Home Nutrition protects disadvantaged and vulnerable individuals by offering special diets and services, including medically tailored meals (MTM).

Why We Focus on Special Diets and Health Conditions

Many people have special dietary requirements due to cultural preferences or health conditions. According to Elsevier, one study reported, “Overall 53.1% of 1019 households reported having special dietary needs. Of these 49.4%, 49.0% and 18.9% required special diets due to allergies, health conditions, and vegetarianism, respectively.” The dedicated team at LifeSpring Home Nutrition believes every person should have access to nourishing meals designed to address medical conditions and prevent future health issues. The large variety of dishes ensures everyone can find something that meets their needs and preferences.

Saving People Money and Saving Lives

Healthy food saves lives and protects individuals and families from unnecessary medical costs. People lower their risk of preventable disease by eating balanced nutritional meals. By preventing expensive health issues, people have more time and energy to focus on family and maintaining positive mental health.

Weekly meal deliveries reduce the risk of the following preventable health conditions:

According to Circulation Research, “[O]besity-associated type 2 diabetes accounts for 90–95% of all diagnosed diabetes in adults.” Obesity is also a form of malnutrition and a leading cause of heart disease. High-calorie foods with low nutrition contribute significantly to unintentional weight gain. Portion size also impacts a person’s diet and health. LifeSpring Home Nutrition offers healthy serving sizes and foods with high nutritional content. Each meal is designed to reduce empty calories and keep people feeling full longer to reduce the urge to snack on unhealthy foods between meals.

How We Accommodate Special Diets and Health Conditions

People with specific dietary or health concerns benefit from speaking with a registered dietician (RD) about their current health and how to improve their diet. LifeSpring Home Nutrition helps people connect with healthcare resources and professionals through referrals and community education. For example, suppose a delivery driver notices an elderly individual has trouble physically coming out to meet them. In that case, the driver may provide local healthcare provider information and suggest the client visit a local clinic. The company prioritizes client safety, dignity, and health during every interaction. Each team member goes the extra mile to ensure everyone receiving meals is treated with the respect and compassion they deserve.

Personalizing Meals for Every Client’s Needs

Tailoring meals means more than ensuring people receive the proper nutrition. Individuals in the community also deserve to choose from healthy foods that remind them of positive life experiences and family. Personalized meals improve physical and emotional well-being by giving people a taste of home while meeting dietary requirements. According to Cathleen Anthony, M.B.A., owner of LifeSpring Home Nutrition, “We . . . believe everyone should enjoy what they are served, and no matter where you are from or how you grew up, it should taste like home and provide you comfort.” Every client has the opportunity to work with a registered dietician to tailor their meals to meet specific medical, personal, and cultural needs or preferences.

Special Diets and Health Conditions Supported by LifeSpring Home Nutrition

Many aspects of a person’s health impact the types of food they can prepare, eat, and digest. Individuals experiencing health issues impacted by diet benefit from having a deeper understanding of how what they eat affects their moods, behaviors, emotions, and pain levels. Education from an RD helps clients gain self-awareness and ensures they have a better understanding of what meal plans would provide them with the most health benefits.

Some of the special diets and services we offer at LifeSpring Home Nutrition include:

People who use our services have a wide range of health conditions affecting their diet. MTM and other services give individuals more control over their diet and general health.

How Our Services Improve Physical and Mental Health

Physical and mental health is directly influenced by the food people eat and their dietary choices. By deciding to work with a meal delivery service and receive tailored meals, people reduce their risk of experiencing preventable health issues. According to the Journal of Nutrition in Gerontology and Geriatrics, “Participation in home-delivered meals programs may contribute to the health and independence of older adults living in the community, especially those who are food insecure or those who are making transitions from acute, subacute, and chronic care settings to the home.”

LifeSpring Home Nutrition understands the challenges some people face when trying to make healthier choices in their day-to-day lives. Choosing meal plans designed to address specific medical conditions improves overall health. Community members are encouraged to contact their healthcare provider to learn how meal deliveries can support their continued health.

Special diets and health conditions impact the types of foods people can eat. LifeSpring Home Nutrition offers nutritionally tailored meals to ensure people with health conditions or dietary restrictions can access high-quality meals.

I had a catastrophic event requiring a long hospital stay and at discharge my HMO offered Lifespring meal services. Initially, I was offered a puree diet and then as I improved a regular diet. Staff were kind, patient, and their supervisor, Christina was extremely accommodating. This is an amazing company who goes the extra mile to ensure patients receive their meals promptly. The food is delicious with a variety of meals. I would highly recommend Lifespring.

Balanced meals excellent customer service. Thank you
I've been receiving Lifespring meals for the past several years. I find them to be fresh, convenient, and delicious! The meals are both balanced and nutritious, and, because they are prepared fresh, and then flash frozen; all one needs is a microwave! Delivery is prompt and courteous, and if ever you want to make a change, the friendly office staff is available by phone. Thank you, Lifespring! 🤗😘
