...chances are, you’d be surprised
Whether our personal goal is performance, energy, longevity, weight loss or simply well-being, the foundation lies in the food that we consume multiple times a day. Yet we still rely to this day on outdated nutritional guidance that doesn’t account for the significant variability in each person’s metabolism.
If your body could tell you how it feels… well, with Yum Health it now can. Yum Health brings an easy and affordable solution to consumers that offers instant feedback on how their body responds to a meal, and actionable advice to optimize their diet and meet health goals.
Food, Stress and Weight Gain/Loss
Studies reveal that 33% of people worldwide report feeling extreme stress or anxiety, in 77% stress affects their physical health, in 73% their mental health and one in two people has trouble sleeping because of stress1. In Switzerland alone, job-related stress results in a loss of productivity worth about CHF 7 billion per year or 1% of GDP.
While we are aware that external factors cause stress, we only begin to understand how our metabolic, immune and nervous systems are involved in creating or fighting stress3 and what a surprisingly important role food plays in this.
With Yum Health we learn daily how our individual dietary habits, stress and weight gain are interlinked and get actionable advice on effective dietary changes we can make to feel better and be healthier.

Let's Bring Health Home: a Glimpse into the Future
Many of us have questions about our health and that of our significant others : am I doing ok, or am I missing important vitamins or electrolytes? Did I train too much yesterday ? Does this medicine work for me ? Are my cholesterol values/hormone levels/stress levels in the green?
Soon, the answer is as easy as applying a patch. For such medical insight there is no need to see a physician every time, or go to a lab, apply invasive techniques, wait for results... and I can test whenever and how often I like.
