Executive Summary

1. Global Health Innovation for Women (#1)
   The vaginal microbiome has been decoded [1]. What does this mean? The vaginal microbiome plays a significant role in maintaining mucosal health, disease protection and optimizing birth outcomes. Lactobacillus crispatus seems to be important for vaginal health and Lactobacillus diversity is of utmost importance to prevent such problems as bacterial vaginosis and sexually transmitted diseases (including HIV). Estrogen protects this diversity and promotes Lactobacillus stability. Diet plays a role through its effect on the gut microbiome [2]. More research is needed on diet and probiotic impact to understand best therapies [3]. The skin microbiome may be a reflection of the gut microbiome which impacts the vaginal microbiome [4]. Ultimately, we will be able to determine the health of the vagina with a skin tape strip for easy, non-invasive microbiome analysis [5]. A clinical research program should be designed to substantiate and validate the interconnection of these ideas. In the future, this non-invasive skin based diagnostic could be used to determine optimal ingestible and topical therapies to improve women’s vaginal health, prevent disease, and optimize birth outcomes globally.

2. AI in personalized nutrition (#2)
   With the overwelming amount of data available, we can’t comprehend any more its volume and learn from it. That is where computers excel; Indeed they are good to extract the needle from the hay stackC For personalized nutrition we collect a large set of mood, symptoms, health metrics and have AI correlate them into a distributed database. Then any query with your own personalized parameters will point to a crafted response that suit you best. Read more ...

4. BRINGING REAL SCIENCE TO SUPPLEMENTS (#4)
   DNA-based and evidence-backed, Immunotype works in tandem with your body’s innate ability to heal—because you deserve a vitamin as intelligent as your immune system. Immunotype was created in response to the pandemic—now more than ever, it’s crucial that we protect and supplement our immune systems. We sought out to create a product that actually works to keep our communities safe and healthy. Additionally, we’re committed to donating 5% of all Immunotype proceeds to provide supplementation to those directly affected by the virus. We’re in this together. Using only the purest, most effective bioavailable ingredients is of paramount importance to us, so we searched high and low to find suppliers that aligned with our values and standards. It took a few trips around the globe, but we found them. Vitamin D3 Vitamin C Vitamin A Vitamin B6 Vitamin B12 Folate Zinc Selenium Copper Echinacea Quercetin Turmeric Elderberry As pioneers in the genetic testing space, we compiled decades of DNA testing data to find immunity boosting ingredients that universally absorb and thus bypass our unique genetic variants. Then we integrated these ingredients and put them in a bottle. Meet Immunotype. learn more : see Caligenix ...
