Aidan Dewar, Nourish, on Using AI to Build a Better Healthcare System

In this episode of The Pulse, I sat down with Aidan Dewar, co-founder and CEO of Nourish, to talk about one of the most underleveraged opportunities in healthcare: treating chronic disease through nutrition and lifestyle change.

Nourish has built the largest network of registered dietitians in the United States and layered virtual physician care, lab testing, and medication management (including GLP-1s) into a single, insurance-covered platform. In just over four years, the company has gone from a virtual dietitian booking platform to a full-stack virtual metabolic clinic, tripling revenue year over year and recently closing a $100 million Series C.

In our conversation, Aidan and I explored:

• His path from childhood entrepreneurship to co-founding Nourish
• Why cardiometabolic dysfunction is the most upstream problem in healthcare (and why now is the right time to solve it)
• How Nourish built the largest registered dietitian network in the U.S.
• The role of personalization and AI in making behavior change stick
• How Nourish thinks about GLP-1s: responsible prescribing, aligned incentives, and why medication alone isn't the answer
• What it took to raise a $100M Series C in a selective funding environment

Hope you enjoy the episode!
