Headed to Nashville this week for Food Health LIVE - will be on stage with some of the best.

@Italianboyaa Depends on the season but I love pineapple! Strawberries are the go to for my kids though.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@GodFav07 Because food is literally information your body uses to function or dysfunction.

Every bite either fights inflammation or fuels it. That's not a metaphor. That's biology.

We've just been taught to think of food as pleasure and pills as medicine. Time to unlearn that.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@enesazouagh Fuel vs. comfort is a powerful frame though I'd add: for millions of people, comfort food is the only option.

Real food as medicine means making the fuel choice accessible, not just aspirational.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@MohammedAlo Such an important reframe, Dr. Alo.

When we stop moralizing food, we open the door to actually healing our relationship with it.

That's where real, lasting change begins.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@AimePatrickIra1 Love this reminder. Food really is the first medicine, and for so many of our members, access to these foods is the missing piece in their care.

The kitchen matters as much as the clinic.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@OrganicLiveFood Nature's pharmacy has been hiding in plain sight this whole time.

Real food. Real function. This is where healthcare has to start.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@Breedlove22 This hits home. Food isn't just part of the prescription it is the prescription for most of what's making people sick.

The hard truth is we've built a system that waits for the crisis instead of preventing it.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@NutritionwJudy Love this reframe, Judy. It's not about what you're taking away, it's about what you're giving back to yourself.

Food choices as an act of intention. That's the heart of it.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@SanitorumApp Curious about this, AI insights are only as good as the data behind them.

What happens when someone needs real food, real care, real follow-through?

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@NutriGraphAPI Clean data is the foundation, you can't build meaningful health outcomes on unreliable nutrition information.

The patients we serve deserve better than guesswork.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@NIHRTechEvalHRC Better diagnostics mean earlier intervention, and earlier intervention means fewer people falling into the chronic disease spiral that costs us trillions.

Rooting for this work.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@gnomonsa Patient at the center yes. But let's make sure that includes what's on their plate, not just what's in their chart.

Technology connects us. Nutrition heals us. We need both.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@Mindbowser Agreed and the real test is whether that foundation actually reaches the patient.

At FareRx, we see what breaks down when systems don't talk to each other. Real people fall through the gaps.

Interoperability isn't a tech win until it improves someone's health.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@CarbConnect The super-smart buddy, framing is catchy, but the real question is whether it's reaching the people who need it most.

AI means nothing if someone still can't afford the food that prevents the disease in the first place.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@go_moringa This is the care model that actually works. Checking food intake alongside clinical progress, that's treating the whole person, not just the diagnosis.

More of this, please.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@Brett_wins This is the care model that actually works.

Checking food intake alongside clinical progress that's treating the whole person, not just the diagnosis.

More of this, please.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@linda_rd This hits close to home. Nutrition before, during, and after, that's real preventive care, not an afterthought.

Keep doing this work, Linda.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@CuragersHealth Such an underrated point. Healthy fats are foundational, not just for heart health, but for how our bodies actually absorb the nutrients we eat.

Real food, real function. This is what Food as Medicine looks like in practice.

[Mike Cangi @MikeCangi]

@RchpZakiyya The raw input here is quite minimal, just a fragment of a tweet about menstrual health and health equity, without enough context for me to craft a meaningful, authentic reply in Mike's voice.
