Las Vegas – MDMeals, a Las Vegas-based online delivery service offering dietician-approved meals specifically curated for chronic health conditions, has officially launched and is now serving select states across the Western U.S. Founded by doctors with firsthand experience in how proper nutrition plays a critical role in treating illnesses, the company is setting a new standard with a healthcare-first approach to the meal delivery service industry.
MDMeals offers medically curated meals created using recommended nutritional guidelines for various health issues. Providing pre-prepared home delivered meals, it is a convenient way to take the guesswork out of meal planning and reducing the burden of preparation, simplifying healthy living for individuals with long-standing medical conditions.
“When faced with a chronic illness, people are often asked to completely overhaul their lifestyles with little support or guidance beyond a printed handout. Without real help, it is no surprise that many patients struggle to properly follow dietary guidelines,” said Dr. Wael Eid, Co-founder and CEO of MDMeals. “Our goal is to simplify that for individuals with long-term health conditions so they can focus on wellness without worrying about what to eat.”
Healthy Meals for Better Living
Bridging the gap between healthcare and food service, MDMeals offers a variety of meal plans tailored to specific health conditions, including:
- Heart Health: Meals designed to support cardiovascular health.
- Diabetes: Carefully crafted dishes that help regulate blood sugar.
- Kidney Health: Foods that can reduce the burden of kidney disease.
- Gout: Nutritional choices to minimize painful flare-up
“As a physician I have seen patients transition from at-risk health to severe chronic conditions. This heartbreaking realization compelled me to establish MDMeals as a way to improve patient outcomes,” said Dr. Prashant Gundre, Co-founder and COO of MDMeals. “I believe strongly that food is medicine, and a proper diet can help people take control of their health.”
According to the CDC, chronic illnesses like heart disease, cancer, and diabetes are the leading causes of death and disability in the U.S., with poor diet being a major contributing factor. An estimated 129 million Americans have at least one major chronic illness.
The MDMeals Origin Story
Dr. Wael Eid and Dr. Prashant Gundre, critical care medicine specialists, found themselves facing a common frustration: patients with conditions like diabetes and kidney disease were struggling to adhere to diets crucial for managing their health. Despite the potential for significant health improvements, patients consistently failed to stick to their recommended meal plans.
Working together at a hospital in Las Vegas, the two doctors compared notes, and a pattern emerged. Their patients weren’t lacking motivation—they simply didn’t have the time, knowledge, or resources to overhaul their eating habits, even when their health depended on it. Recognizing that their patients needed more than just advice, they developed MDMeals as a practical, accessible solution that could seamlessly integrate into their daily lives.
