🤔 Frequently Asked Questions:

Why is this so important?

Diet-related diseases are our top killers on the planet.

• Every 36 seconds someone in the USA dies of a heart-related problem.
• Our country has now passed the 40% mark for people being obese.
• 609,000 people will die from cancer this year.

In 2023 the White House met to discuss “Strategy on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health,” for the first time in 50 years.  They listed 5 areas to reduce diet-related diseases. Food FiXR provides solutions to FOUR of them. We are a resource for social determinants of health (SDOH) in food choice education, and the reduction of diet-related diseases.

How do you come up with my personal grocery list?

We've dug through millions of brainy articles to find foods packed with the good stuff your body needs to repair.  Plus, we'll dodge anything you're allergic to or just not into – whether you're a veggie-lover, paleo fan, or pescatarian.

Where do I get the groceries you suggest for me?

Use our app to snag groceries from your fave stores. Get 'em delivered, swing by for a pickup, or stroll through the store with your list – your call.

What if I don't know what to do with the foods you suggest?

We are here to help! Success comes with a tribe of support, so we offer recipes and meals that are made with your special list of foods to help you repair. We also have real-life coaches to guide you who have AI assistants helping us, and communities where you can talk to other people going through what you are.

Is the app available to download?

Not yet.  That's why we need your funding support!  We have our method mapped out and ready to build with our development team, we need the funds to pay them to do their job.

How do you make money?

We make money in a few different ways.  Just like how Instacart charges a small fee when you buy groceries through their app, we also charge a fee, like 3% to 7%, when people buy groceries using our service.  And there are over 200 million adults between the ages of 20 - 65 buying needed groceries.  That's a $3.2 BILLION market!

1. We have two special plans that people can sign up for. One is called "Basic," and it costs $7.99 per month. It gives people recipes and helps them plan their meals. The other plan is called "Premier," and is a bit more fancy. It costs $179 per month, and it comes with real expert coaches who can help you with your health successes.  And even cooler, the coaches have AI helping them with a smart computer friend (like a robot) called WellnessGPT that makes it easier for you to stay on track.
2. We sell some special supplements in our app designed especially by our doctors to help you. These are like pills and powders that people can buy to make them feel better.
3. We find out special information about what people buy and where they buy it, and then share this information with insurance companies and grocery stores.  This information helps them understand what people like to buy and where they get it.  Nothing is ever shared that is your private business, though!
