Cleveland-based Start-up Food Company Receives Cleveland Clinic Wellness Go! Healthy Food Label

CLEVELAND - Feb. 3, 2015 - PRLog -- Lyndhurst, OH, January 5, 2015 — eat+LIVE, a new brand of healthy meals delivered to your door, will carry the exclusive Go! Healthy foods label from the Cleveland Clinic Wellness Institute. The brand, co-created by a Cleveland native, is based in Lyndhurst, Ohio.

Schryse Williams, born and raised on the east side of Cleveland, started the company after struggling to provide her mother with suitable meals after she was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. After that challenging experience, Williams set out to help others, especially those with diabetes, chronic heart conditions and severe obesity.

“eat+LIVE meal solutions are designed as a great-tasting solution to help you establish a life-sustaining, healthy-eating routine — in less time,” said co-founder Schryse Williams. Along with meals, every delivery arrives with an issue of eat+LIVE magazine. The publication includes articles, recipes and tips from Cleveland Clinic Wellness experts designed to help you learn how to live a healthier lifestyle.

“It is such an honor to partner with the Cleveland Clinic Wellness Institute,” said Williams. Eat+LIVE will join a small select group of national brands that also carry the Wellness Go! Healthy foods label.

Eat+LIVE meal solutions are fully prepared dishes that ship frozen to 20+ states and are made with a careful balance of calories, sugar and sodium levels. It’s their delicious flavors, however, that make them truly unique. With dishes such as Tex-Mex Chicken and Southern Style Red Beans & Rice, eat+LIVE meals include everyday American favorites with flavorful infusions from regions across the country. The Cleveland Clinic Go! Healthy food label allows customers the freedom to mix and match favorite entrees, sides and vegetables without the hassle of counting sodium or added sugar.

“The food we eat is vitally important to the body’s ability to recover from surgery, lose weight and to maintain overall health,” said Dr. Michael Roizen, Chief Wellness Officer and Wellness Institute Chair from the Cleveland Clinic, “eat+LIVE meals are an easy and delicious way for people to quickly make dietary changes while learning to eat more nutritious foods.”

Following a diet that meets the Go! Healthy nutrition guidelines will not only help people live better, but it can also help reverse some previously diagnosed conditions. All eat +LIVE meals meet the following Go! Healthy requirements:

1) Minimal saturated fat: Less than 4g of saturated fat for entrees and less than 2 grams for sides
