Answer:
So basically food as medicine is a brand new, um, as a brand new initiative in the United States and some states, and I'm not familiar with where, uh, I attended Summit NRC, you say our city. So I'm not sure what city, what state you're in, but different states have Medicaid and Medicare that can pro that can actually pay for healthy food. And usually when healthy food is given, you have either a dietician or a cook showing people how to cook that way. So I would look into your food as medicine Medicaid policy in your state or you can just reach out to me and I can help you find that to see if there is money there for creating what's called uh, prescription programs.
