ROOT Brands and OptimalMD Launch New Corporate Wellness Initiatives

Founders Clayton Thomas and Dr. Christina Rahm spearhead a new era of employee benefits and preventative care

Franklin, Tennessee, Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amid rising costs, limited access, and growing consumer frustration, Clayton Thomas and Dr. Christina Rahm are providing affordable, personalized healthcare and clinically validated wellness solutions for families and employers nationwide.

The ROOT Brands® and OptimalMD™  along with The International Science Nutrition Society have announced a national collaboration that unifies individualized telemedicine, corporate wellness, and longevity-focused care on a private-concierge-healthcare platform.

A New Healthcare Model: Personalized Telemedicine with Free Maintenance Prescriptions and Labs + World Leading Natural Solutions

The ROOT x OptimalMD collaboration offers families and employers access to:

• Unlimited telemedicine for the entire household
• Free generic prescriptions
• Free lab testing on over 3,000 test including blood and urine
• Personalized care with 13 specialties including behavioral health
• Concierge-level access at an affordable price

Families can save thousands of dollars annually while receiving modern, individualized healthcare.

Self-insured employers, TPAs, and brokers may significantly reduce annual healthcare costs, depending on the size of the employee population.

This solution is currently live, operational, and available nationwide.

Why This Matters for Self‑Insured Employers

Self‑insured companies are facing:

• Escalating premiums
• Unpredictable claims volatility
• Employee Retention
• Health Info Security – zero reporting / 100% private
• Rising pharmacy costs & lab spends
• Employee dissatisfaction with traditional care models

The ROOT x OptimalMD collaboration addresses these challenges by providing:

• Predictable, low‑cost primary care access
• Zero‑cost generics and labs
• Reduced ER and urgent care utilization
• Improved employee satisfaction and retention
• A measurable reduction in total cost of care

This is the first national model to combine concierge medicine, telehealth, and clinically validated wellness into a single, scalable solution for self-insured organizations.

The Wellness & Longevity Layer: ROOT Brands + Rahm Roast Coffee

Healthcare is incomplete without wellness, and wellness is only effective when validated by clinical evidence.

ROOT Brands addresses both needs.

The collaboration integrates ROOT’s clinically proven, HAS/FSAS-approved products, such as:

• Clean Slate®
• Restore®
• Zero-In®
• Crush
• Sculpt
• Rahm Roast™ coffee
• And the full ROOT wellness portfolio

These products are used globally to support detoxification, reduce inflammation, enhance cognitive performance, strengthen immune resilience, and optimize longevity.

Integrating ROOT’s wellness system into the OptimalMD care model provides families and employees with:

• Biohacking‑level wellness protocols
• Longevity‑driven daily routines
• Clinically validated supplementation
• A Make Americans Healthy Again™ lifestyle framework

This marks the first integration of a medical telehealth platform and a clinically validated wellness brand into a unified health ecosystem.

A Founder‑Led Vision: Clayton Thomas & Dr. Christina Rahm

This collaboration is led by two industry leaders with decades of experience challenging conventional approaches:

Clayton Thomas

Founder of The ROOT Brands®. Expert in global commercialization, influencer-driven wellness, and clinically validated detoxification systems.

Dr. Christina Rahm

Scientist, formulator, and global health strategist. Developer of the Rahm Protocols and the Rahm Roast™ functional coffee line.

Together, they are building a healthcare model that is:

• Personalized
• Affordable
• Clinically grounded
• Scalable for families and employers
• Designed to improve Americans’ health immediately

Why This Collaboration Is a National Imperative

America’s healthcare system is under strain. Families face higher costs and reduced benefits. Employers manage unsustainable expenses. Consumers seek personalization, transparency, and measurable results.

ROOT x OptimalMD delivers:

• A new standard of care
• A new economic model
• A new wellness paradigm
• A new national movement toward health sovereignty

This is not an incremental improvement but a comprehensive redesign of healthcare delivery.
