Main focus
Redesigning a soup kitchen menu using a "food is medicine" approach to support cardiometabolic and mental health.
Population/setting
Guests at an urban US soup kitchen and linked overflow shelter.
My take
Proof that the ladle can be a clinical tool. Makes me side‑eye every beige tray we serve on the ward.
