The approach defies the restrictive weight loss paradigm, with early results indicating increased meal tracking and member engagement1 with new real-time, personalized nutrition guidance SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Omada Health (Nasdaq: OMDA), the virtual between-visit healthcare provider, launches Meal Map, a new nutrient-categorization tool that combines AI-powered instant feedback with human care teams to help members in its cardiometabolic programs understand the nutrient quality of their food choices. Built within Omada’s Nutritional Intelligence capability, Meal Map is designed to help members make informed food choices, with an aim towards fostering confidence and long-term healthy habits. In an era of increased GLP-1 use2 and rising popularity of fad diets,3 people are confused about nutrition and are seeking sustainable approaches to health beyond restrictive dieting.4 Meal Map is designed to meet this need by helping members improve their relationship with food, moving away from categorizing foods as "good" or "bad" to an evidence-based,5 nutrient-dense approach. Focusing on nutrient-density has been proven to promote broad health benefits, including supporting a robust immune system,6 boosting energy levels,7 improving digestive health,8 and reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and diabetes,9 as well as certain cancers.10 In a pilot program with over 1,000 members, Meal Map demonstrated promising early results, as members showed an increase in meal engagement compared to traditional approaches.1 The tool provides instant feedback on nutrient composition of meals and delivers weekly progress reports on nutritional quality and water intake. Utilizing insights from tracked meals, members also receive recommendations for dietitian-vetted recipes through OmadaSpark, Omada's AI-powered nutrition education tool that launched earlier this year. “This evidence-based approach fills a critical gap in the market for a tool that moves beyond simple calorie counting and food restrictions, which isn’t always necessary to lose weight;5 instead, it focuses on nutritional value and food freedom,” said Justin Wu, MD, VP of Clinical Innovation and Quality at Omada Health. “By analyzing member behavior, gathering insights from our care teams, and listening to member feedback, we’ve developed a solution that provides actionable guidance for building lasting health habits - whether members are managing cardiometabolic conditions, using GLP-1 medications, or working towards broader health goals.” Omada HealthOmada Health is a virtual-first healthcare provider that nurtures lifelong health, one day at a time.
