Make Food Your Ally

Join the Complete Metabolic and Heart Health Pilot Study

Good Health Starts in the Kitchen 

What you eat can affect your health. Some foods can raise the risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and obesity. Other foods can prevent illnesses.  

If you worry about heart disease, diabetes, or weight, you’re not alone. Anthem’s Complete Metabolic and Heart Health program is here to help. If you qualify, our program is a pilot study conducted over 12 months. It is available at no extra cost for members who qualify.  

The Complete Metabolic and Heart Health program can help you: 

  • Discover how using food as medicine can improve your health. 
  • Benefit from personalized coaching and care. 
  • Explore Vida, a virtual program that offers a support community, health coach, and physician for guided treatment. 
  • Use Foodsmart™ to receive support from a registered dietitian who helps with meal planning, grocery budgeting, and ongoing assessments. 
  • Link your meal plan with local stores for the best grocery deals.
