Signal Dietary advice from gut flora, blood work and glucose response
Summary
This signal is a service that gives dietary recommendations based on stool and blood samples together with blood sugar monitoring. Sitra cites the company ZOE, dated September 2024. The service treats the gut microbiome and the body's metabolic response as the basis for deciding what a person should eat. It represents a biological, data-driven form of personalised nutrition. A related signal builds diets from a person's genes instead. Sitra includes it among signals behind an imagined 2046 magazine article on future food and the health trends that may dominate.
