Award-winning chef Jennifer Caraway founded a nonprofit organization The Joy Bus, that delivers fresh, chef-prepared meals to individuals battling cancer. In the process of her endeavors, she has drawn the attention of leaders across medicine, food, and policy.

In this episode, Dr. Dan Rubin, a respected member of The Joy Bus’ Food is Medicine Committee, joins Jennifer and fellow committee members in discussing how the organization’s mission is evolving into something far greater. Dr. Shad Marvasti, director of the University of Arizona’s Culinary Medicine Program, reveals cutting-edge developments in nutritional science and public health—raising the question: could insurance-covered produce be the next frontier? Dr. Robb Blackaby, a renowned physical therapist turned microgreens farmer, sheds light on the power of microgreens and how performance nutrition has influenced many of the top athletes he has worked with.


What began as a heartfelt mission to honor Jennifer’s dear friend Joy has since painted a vivid picture of what food as medicine looks like when love is the secret ingredient—positioning The Joy Bus as a powerful model for a more humane, health-driven future.
