Problem
Many individuals with SIBO, IBS, or food intolerances lack accessible, reliable methods to identify which foods trigger digestive symptoms, often relying on costly clinical breath tests or trial‑and‑error diets that provide delayed or vague feedback.
Solution
FoodMarble offers a handheld breath‑testing device (AIRE 2) that measures hydrogen and methane levels in real time to detect malabsorption of specific FODMAPs. Users pair the device with a mobile app to log meals, symptoms, and breath scores, building a personalized baseline and tracking changes over weeks. The app provides a recommended daily FODMAP allowance, visualizes breath score trends, and includes a barcode scanner that shows the FODMAP content of packaged foods. By delivering immediate, data‑driven insights, the system enables users to pinpoint trigger foods, adjust their diet, and reduce bloating and discomfort without repeated clinic visits.
Target Audience
Primary users are adults with IBS, SIBO, or functional food intolerances who seek at‑home diagnostic insight, as well as healthcare professionals who want objective breath‑test data to support dietary management.
