Canada Life is now offering plan members access to diet and nutrition guidance app RxFood at no cost. According to RxFood, 94 per cent of its users experience lasting improvements in eating habits when using the app consistently. 

RxFood offers a variety of functions, including:

• Intuitive AI-powered food tracking, allowing you to snap a picture of a meal and have it and its nutritional content logged instantly;
• Personalized nutritional and wellness guidance tailored to your specific health goals, biometrics, and lifestyle;
• Support that goes beyond simple food logging, helping enact real behaviour change;
• Integration with select continuous glucose monitors, empowering users with diabetes to see how food choices can impact their glucose levels; and
• Fast, convenient access to book appointments with registered dietitians.

For those wishing to go deeper on nutritional health or dealing with chronic diseases like diabetes, obesity, or heart disease, RxFood also gives users the opportunity to get additional support from a registered dietitian. These licensed experts can provide personalized advice based on your individual circumstances, utilizing their training in diabetes, chronic disease nutrition, heart health, and healthy eating. 

While the app is being provided through a partnership with Canada Life, the use of RxFood is completely private and confidential. RxFood will never share the information it collects with your employer or Canada Life.
