Cracking the Longevity Code

Summary:


Healthcare is increasingly moving towards prevention and healthier ageing, focusing on understanding the body before illness develops. By combining functional medicine, advanced biomarkers, nutrition, and lifestyle interventions, health can be managed more precisely and personally. Wearable technologies now provide real-time insights into key health indicators, helping individuals better understand how their bodies respond to daily habits. Together, these approaches empower individuals to make informed decisions that support healthier ageing and wellness.


One of the most important real-time types of information we can track is our blood glucose levels, as this is a useful reflection of the state of our metabolism and how we are handling the type of food we eat. Most of these continuous glucose monitors require the placement of a small sensor under your skin to measure glucose levels in the interstitial fluid between cells. More recently, a local MedTech start-up called Actxa has produced a smart ring that integrates photoplethysmography sensors with AI algorithms to predict blood glucose levels continuously. Working with this technology, we have studied how different subjects respond after consuming our clean-label, functional food. Needless to say, the results were impressive and have strengthened our conviction in producing food for a healthier nation.
