| About Dine to Thrive: |
Dine to Thrive was founded in 2006 by Wade Armstrong. Armed with the desire to help people through food, Wade spoke to a variety of cancer survivors, including his mother, and learned about the challenges that they had encountered eating right as they fought cancer. Wade brought together Chef Hideyo Mitsuno, a Los Angeles chef acclaimed for his combination of Asian and European flavors, and dietitians from some of Los Angeles's top hospitals to design a range of meals that would be both delicious and reflect the latest evidence-based scientific knowledge to help in the fight against cancer. We pride ourselves on our nutrient-dense, immune-boosting, low-fat gourmet meals. Dine to Thrive is committed to socially-responsible business practices, including evidence-based medical nutrition, sustainable hiring, and concern for the environment. We can't help you be healthy unless we're healthy ourselves. |
