FYXX’s mission is to prevent and cure chronic disease through Food as Medicine.
50% of Americans suffer from some sort of chronic condition. Health care costs continue to spiral out of control. Yet there is a simpler more cost-effective solution – Food as Medicine. We know that there is a direct correlation between the foods that you eat and your health. Chronic diseases such as heart disease, IBS, diabetes, osteoporosis, and others are often rooted in diet. FYXX aims to help solve this problem.
THE FYXX APPROACH: TASTY, FUN, AND CONVENIENT NUTRITION
FYXX believes that combining the right supplements with the right diet is the formula for combating chronic disease and preventing illness. But, creating healthy habits requires a new approach. FYXX aims to make it easy for everyone to get the nutrients they need by making products that are nutritious, great tasting, fun, and convenient. “In other words, very healthy stuff that you will actually look forward to having each day!”
Their first product, Epic Immunity, was specifically created as, “A great tasting way to support immune health.”*
