An Interview with VA Kidney Specialist, Dr. Yoav Segal, and Olga Polyakov, RD, MS, CSR
In a new series by Open Arms of Minnesota, we want to take a deep dive into the Food is Medicine movement by taking a closer look at Medically Tailored Meals (MTM). Over this five-part series, our audience will learn more about medically tailored meals and their outcomes, the role of the Food Is Medicine Coalition (FIMC), and what’s new and innovative across the food as medicine landscape.
In our third segment of the “What Is A Medically Tailored Meal” series, we feature an exclusive interview with Dr. Yoav Segal and Olga Polyakov, RD, MS, CSR. Dr. Segal and Olga share insights from their experience in the medical field working with Veterans, on the importance of managing critical and chronic illness through healthy nutrition and nutrition counseling and education. They share their insights and observations on the transformative power of Medically Tailored Meals (MTM), offering a firsthand perspective on how MTMs help support patients’ health and well-being.
