Tackle Chronic Diseases by Beating the Root Cause

Our app may help to identify and address the root causes of your chronic health problems.

Our app may help to identify and address the root causes of your chronic health problems. Our specialized AI, trained using cutting-edge science, uses your health-related data (symptoms, test results, lifestyle, etc.) to assess your health. In the next step, our app suggests actions which may help to to improve your health issues, then tracks your progress towards becoming healthier. Most often, reversing the root causes is enough for healing.

Unlike our methodology, mainstream medicine primarily focuses on relieving symptoms, which rarely leads to a cure for chronic diseases. The side effects of such methods can be severe and may contribute to the development of additional diseases.

For example, instead of only treating reflux with acid blockers, we explore the underlying causes, such as diet, medication use and alcohol consumption, among others.

We view the body as an interconnected network.

We view the body as an interconnected network. The gut, immune, hormone, energy systems, as well as the brain communicate; changing one variable can shift the entire network. Symptoms and lab results are not isolated indicators of disease, but rather reflections of deeper, underlying mechanisms that can manifest in multiple ways.

Our method combines your symptoms, lab results, lifestyle habits, and other factors to provide personalized lifestyle recommendations.

For example, chronic inflammation in the body caused by gut issues can manifest as joint pain, high blood pressure, elevated inflammation marker levels in lab results, cardiovascular disease, depression, or any other chronic disease.

Our recommendations prioritize diet and lifestyle changes over medications and supplements.

Our recommendations prioritize diet and lifestyle changes over medications and supplements. In most cases, these changes outperform drugs, and often even surgical interventions. Their benefits tend to last longer and carry no side effects—or, when side effects occur, they’re usually temporary and minimal. At the same time, most drugs may cause unwanted symptoms and can contribute to other diseases. Therefore pharmaceutical drugs should be the last resort.

For example, in type 2 diabetes, targeted dietary changes that include lowering overall carbohydrates, especially quick-absorbing ones, can heal insulin resistance, normalize blood sugar, and reverse most diabetic complications. The intervention eliminates, or at least reduces, the need for medication. Adding regular exercise and/or sufficient fasting windows often accelerates this healing process.

Most chronic diseases stem from a mismatch between our inherited biology, shaped by evolution, and our modern industrialized lifestyle.

Humans followed a hunter-gatherer lifestyle for almost two million years. Our ancestors adapted to environments characterized by whole foods with low carbohydrate content, physical activity, and natural light. In contrast, today’s sedentary, high-stress lifestyles, combined with the consumption of ultra-processed carbohydrates and toxic additives, create health imbalances. Our human ancestors followed a hunter-gatherer lifestyle for almost two million years. Farming emerged approximately 12,000 years ago and gradually became widespread. Since then, the development of new foods has been accelerated by new methods in agriculture and the food industry. These changes were beneficial for human expansion, but their long-term impact on the individuals’ health was often negative. Our biology can’t keep up with the speed of change. Most of us are Ice Age bodies running on soda and cereal — and it shows. To fix our health issues, we should align our lifestyle to our biology.

Chronic conditions like obesity, insulin resistance, or cancer are almost nonexistent in traditional hunter-gatherer societies, but are common and strike at increasingly younger ages in industrialized populations.

Medical science is rife with conflicting claims, often resting on weak evidence.

Medical science is rife with conflicting claims, often resting on weak evidence. Researchers frequently operate in silos, overlooking insights from other teams and related fields. The field is further burdened by biases rooted in personal beliefs and the financial interests of study sponsors. Such biased research has a huge indirect impact on dietary guidelines, the decisions of health practitioners, and patients. Try comparing the old food pyramid with the new one (Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2025–2030): "New dietary guidelines flip the food pyramid".

Our Medical Research Team works to resolve these issues using critical thinking and by building a coherent knowledge base that integrates the ideas best supported by other fields, drawing on evidence from medicine, evolution, archaeology, and genetics.

We concentrate on chronic issues, often referred to as “diseases of civilization”, rather than acute illnesses.
