Our gut contains a world of microorganisms that impact many aspects of our health, well beyond the gastrointestinal system.
In fact, more than 30 trillion bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses live in the digestive tract of every human, a number that is higher than the number of human cells that make up our body!
Each microbiome is unique to an individual, and its genetic heritage represents approximately 100 times that of the human genome.
This field is fascinating and science is advancing rapidly, as evidenced by the 2,000 publications generated monthly on the subject.
A better understanding of this remarkable ecosystem might bring critical answers to address numerous pathologies and health disorders.
This is the mission of Leo Grady and his team at Jona, whose technology enables microbiome analysis based on an at-home test, combined with artificial intelligence to reveal what the current literature says about each person's microbiome.
Unveiling the propensity for certain disease risks, along with individual nutritional preferences, Jona can model the body's reaction according to potential changes in the microbiome, and provide valuable insights on behaviors and nutrition that can ultimately improve one’s health.

Can the attention economy be harnessed to serve health?
Paradoxical as it may seem, this is the thesis of Tryggvi Thorgeirsson and his team at Sidekick Health.
As a medical doctor trained in Iceland in the 2000s, Tryggvi experienced rural medicine firsthand and what working as a general practitioner in a remote setting means.
And he quickly found himself confronted with the limitations posed by the healthcare system at the time:
Prescribing medications at the expense of other therapies where patients are guided toward healthier behaviors.
The silos and impossibility of establishing a care plan that simultaneously takes into account multiple conditions.
A purely reactive approach based on a brick-and-mortar model running out of steam.
The emergence of smartphones and their potential as health companions became obvious to him.
Based on this intuition, he co-founded Sidekick Health alongside his fellow physician and colleague Saemundur Oddsson.
The company is now one of the leaders in digital therapeutics, offering a vast portfolio of therapies accessible from each patient's pocket, prescribed by thousands of doctors in Europe and the US.
We talk with Tryggvi about the principles behind how these digital therapies work, how attention levers can be used to support long-term behavior change, and the growing impact these solutions have on individuals and healthcare systems.
In the era of social media and the mental plague they represent, this episode brings a refreshing perspective on how dopamine can be used to put the health of individuals back in their own hands.

Making healthcare preventive and better able to catch serious conditions earlier is a recurring topic for governments, health systems, and ultimately patients.
As healthcare resources become scarce while chronic conditions and their burden on society grow larger, a preventive and more proactive approach to healthcare is undoubtedly part of the solution.
There are many ways to go about it, with one emerging trend over the past few years focusing on holistic check-ups, providing a large set of scans, biological assays, and complimentary exams all at once on the same day, helping to give a broad snapshot of one’s health status.
One approach that has triggered debate within the medical community focuses on full-body MRI scans delivered to individuals who can afford it, as the ultimate disease prevention tool.
A detailed view of the inside of one’s body, based on one of the most widely used medical imaging methods.
Some criticize the lack of evidence around the true benefits these scans bring to patients and health systems, pointing to the high price charged for them.
Others testify to the diagnostic help these scans offer, lifting the veil on previously unexplained patient cases, and highlighting the possibility of taking action long before certain symptoms are expressed.
One way or another, these reactions reflect an approach to medical screening that challenges traditional practices and raises questions.
In this episode with the Founder and CEO of Prenuvo, Andrew Lacy addresses the main questions raised by this practice, offering new perspectives on how to apprehend these scans as a medical analysis tool, how they can complement existing care practices, and the complexity linked to the evaluation of the impact that these scans can have on health systems.
