Description:
ChefMD was born at the intersection of Food and Medicine. Practicing physician and professionally-trained Chef, John La Puma MD and Rebecca Powell Marx, a journalist, marketing executive and medical television producer formed ChefMD LLC as a health and media company to show health-conscious consumers how to choose foods like a doctor and prepare them like a chef. ChefMD displays its content in three media platforms - television, print publishing and Internet - and is developing several product lines. ChefMD's mission is to motivate health-conscious consumers to look, feel and actually be measurably healthier with what they eat. ChefMD's vision is a lifestyle, driven by a new way in which health-conscious consumers think about, prepare, buy and eat food -- as medicine too. And ChefMD's product mission is to provide people, intrigued by a “what-can-I-eat-for-that? Lifestyle” access to a range of best-in-class products and services.
