Brian sits down with Erin Martin, CEO/founder of Fresh RX
Oklahoma and co-lead of the Oklahoma Food Is Medicine Policy
Coalition. They discuss her background in gerontology, early work
in long-term care, and observations that U.S. older adults average
15+ prescriptions, contrasting with healthier aging and cultural
differences she saw in Italy.
She describes launching Fresh RX during the pandemic with
$185,000 to prescribe locally sourced, low-pesticide food plus
lifestyle education for type 2 diabetes patients in North Tulsa,
now serving 500+ patients via 22 clinics, measuring biometrics and
cost savings with a reported 4–5x ROI. They discuss scaling Food Is
Medicine through insurance, bridging it with regenerative sourcing,
planned nutrient-density testing, and Erin's shift from veganism to
eating beef, bone broth, and marrow.
