Lifesum Adds Big-Name Corporate Wellness Partners
The popular healthy eating app continues to attract high-profile employers, adding to its existing list including Amazon, GE and PayPal
Lifesum, a highly popular app that inspires healthy eating, has attracted a new corporate wellness partner in group insurance company YuLife. The deal will bring Lifesum’s corporate wellness experience to member companies such as Tesco, Santander and Capital One.
Since launching in 2013, Lifesum has grown to encourage over 60 million people with its approach to smart food choices. The platform features customized nutrition insights, guidance, recipes, meal plans and diets, and offers users food and exercise trackers.
The Lifsum app can now be found in YuLife’s YuStore, a marketplace where companies can purchase health and wellness apps.
“Healthy eating impacts every aspect of life, including workplace well-being, which is why organizations are turning to Lifesum, as they know the benefits of investing in the health of their employees to achieve their full potential,” said Chris Seth, chief strategy officer at Lifesum.
Lifesum’s approach to wellness supports a recent report that demonstrated the economic results of investing in employee well-being, which is worth up to a staggering $370 billion per year to U.K. organizations, or the equivalent of £4,000 to £12,000 per U.K. employee.
In addition to YuLife, the health eating solution app has attracted other major employers including Amazon, GE and PayPal.
Sammy Rubin, YuLife founder and CEO, explained that the company is pioneering a new form of group insurance for businesses by incentivizing health lifestyle modifications, reducing risk and improving overall health.
“Lifesum’s focus on holistic health enables YuLife to help businesses seeking to improve the well-being of their employees, and make a tangible difference to their lives,” Rubin sad. “Unequivocal evidence shows how healthy eating impacts all aspects of life, both in and out of the workplace, and leads to lower absenteeism, higher productivity and active, fulfilled lives.”
The healthy eating platform recently became the first to launch a Hormonal Meal Plan, designed to aid employees in balancing hormones naturally. Lifesum also introduced a sleep tracking feature with Oura, supporting the link between sleep and nutrition, which significantly impacts overall workplace health and wellness.
