Problem
Many individuals struggle to maintain healthy blood glucose levels, leading to insulin resistance and related health complications. Traditional methods often involve significant lifestyle changes, such as strict dietary restrictions or medication, which can be difficult to sustain.
Solution
Nudge is a mobile application that leverages continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data and machine learning to predict impending glucose spikes. By analyzing real-time glucose levels, the app proactively recommends short bursts of targeted physical activity to help users mitigate these spikes and improve insulin sensitivity. This approach allows individuals to manage their blood glucose more effectively without relying solely on dietary modifications or pharmaceuticals. The app uses exercise dosing based on scientific studies to help users keep their glucose within a healthy range.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes individuals seeking to proactively manage their blood glucose levels and improve insulin sensitivity without drastic lifestyle changes or medication.
Features
- Real-time prediction of glucose spikes within the next 30 minutes using machine learning algorithms trained on patient data.
- Personalized recommendations for short, targeted physical activity to lower blood glucose levels.
- Integration with continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) for continuous data collection.
- Machine learning algorithm correlates real-time glucose levels with millions of data points to provide accurate predictions.
