Elevate

After nearly two decades of a Personalized nutrition industry, consumers are still confused on what Personalized nutrition is, and practitioners are not able to define it. Using the terms precision nutrition and personalized nutrition interchangeably has further complicated matters.
 
Furthermore despite increasing consumer interest, there is a misconception that Personalized nutrition is about plant-based eating, designer foods and expensive tests and supplements only available to those with high disposable income.

Why now ?

Prevention, Personalization and Digitization are key drivers for the future of health and medicine. We are also witnessing increased adoption and penetration of wearables and digital health tools powered by AI. However with increasing healthcare costs and a shrinking pool of healthcare professionals, major changes are required to plug this gap.

The time is now to ensure that no one is left behind in this 4th Industrial revolution. Stakeholders who are committed to building and contributing to creating a credible industry, need to join forces if prevention is the goal. We need to dial up the volume of expert voices in order to protect our societal values and morals to ensure that new innovations are ethical, reliable, rooted in the science to build trust and not erase our Humanness.

Technology offers an opportunity to deliver remote healthcare, increase self-management as well as detect early signs that require intervention. Current solution, if not developed responsibly and ethically risks
