FAQ

  • What are your nutrition programs based on?

    Launch My Health was founded on the principle that food can be one of the most powerful medicines we have. Our nutrition & culinary programming is evidence-based and includes a whole fresh foods approach with an emphasis on a positive mindset and celebrating food. We believe flexible eating styles are more sustainable than diets that are restrictive, and we work to guide you in simple ways you can enjoy eating this way.

  • Who are these programs NOT recommended for?

    All nutrition programs are not meant for anyone under the age of 18, under the care of a physician for cancer treatment or another serious medical condition, pregnant, nursing, or trying to conceive. If you are unsure, consult with your physician first before beginning.

  • I have a food allergy/sensitivity and/or follow a specific diet. Will I be able to participate?

    Yes! All our recipes have options to be modified to fit a Dairy-free, Gluten-free, and/or Low-FODMAP eating style. Plus, you’ll find many excellent vegetarian, pescatarian, and vegan options. The cooking courses are focused on honing your cooking skills. So, if you don’t like, or can’t eat an ingredient, you can swap it out for something that works for you. You’re in control.

  • How long does it take to complete the nutrition programs?

    All nutrition programs are self-paced and can be completed to work with your schedule. We recommend completing them within 5-8 weeks. The curriculum is divided into sections, and each section includes videos and homework with goals to implement between sessions.

  • How long will I have access to this program?

    You will have access to the program as long as it is offered by UHG, although re-enrollment may be required after three months at no cost. Your spot will be saved and you can resume the course where you left off. Program workbooks and recipes can be downloaded for your personal use.
