A new program through University Hospitals is helping out food deserts across Northeast Ohio.
Inside University Hospitals Portage County Medical Center lies what is called a “Food for Life Food Market.”
One of the Grandees’ doctors told them about this new free food market, and how it would save them money and help them get their health back on track. The food markets are staffed with registered dietitians. They walk people through their food choices. The market has fresh produce, which means healthier options for people.
The market is funded through University Hospitals and donations from the community. Patients however do need a referral to get into the program from a University Hospitals doctor.
