LifeSpring is the nutrition pioneer delivering wellness and independence with passion and care direct to your doorstep.

LifeSpring's focus is to serve the nutrition needs of any consumer interested in health and wellness, regardless of age. The key benefits of LifeSpring's offerings are:

  • Restaurant-quality meals and snacks
  • Nutrient-dense foods that exceed the stringent requirements set by the American Heart Association and the American Diabetes Association
  • Clinical proof that LifeSpring products improve major heart disease risk factors, including cholesterol and weight management
  • Direct-to-home and direct-to-office delivery either through our uniformed drivers (certain markets only) or via FedEx
  • Nutrition counseling and preparation of custom meal plans
  • Easy ordering either through this web site, through a LifeSpring partner web site or through our telephone call center.

LifeSpring has developed a portfolio of proprietary formulated, nutritionally superior, great tasting frozen meals and snacks supported by direct to the consumer distribution, registered dietitian assessment and telephone call center services. Our goal is to enable individuals to improve their health and quality of life by making access to healthful, great tasting food simple and convenient.

Our programs are supported by clinical data. In a study conducted by Tufts University at the New England Medical Center, among patients with cardiovascular disease, the LifeSpring program was shown to significantly reduce LDL cholesterol and other risk factors beyond that provided by drug therapy.

LifeSpring's consumer-friendly approach, combined with our great tasting nutritious meals, makes it very easy to enjoy healthy eating at work and at home. We currently deliver direct to your door via our own delivery trucks in the San Francisco Bay Area, Greater Los Angeles, including Orange County and the Inland Empire, Southeast Florida, including Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties and the Cleveland and Akron areas of Ohio. In addition, we can reach the rest of the country through our Internet-based e-commerce iCareTM program whereby our products can be ordered and delivered anywhere in the United States via Fed Ex.
