In the UK, 10X Health has introduced the world’s first patented “precision” genetic test that records biological and nutritional data “with 99.97% accuracy.” The 10X Precision Genetic Test produces a comprehensive 400+ page report delivering insights about nutrition, weight management, and lifestyle factors.
The system, developed in Austria by biotechnologist Daniel Wallerstorfer, Ph.D., leverages AI to analyze up to 20 million genetic variations.
It is supported by investor Cardone Ventures, a business growth firm led by Brandon Dawson and Grant Cardone, and in partnership with Reviv Global, a personalized health and IV therapy specialist.
“This partnership eradicates the guesswork of health fads and trends, replacing them with science-backed, data-driven solutions that uniquely cater to each individual,” says Sarah Lomas, CEO of Reviv Global.
“With more than a decade of R&D, three million IVs delivered, and the integration of cutting-edge genetic science, we’re empowering people to take control of their health in a way that’s never been possible before. This is the future of health and wellness.”
Non-invasive procedure
According to the company, the process is simple and non-invasive. Customers provide an oral swab sample, which is analyzed at a state-of-the-art laboratory using Micro Array technology to capture 700,000 DNA variations.
AI-powered bioinformatics then expands the analysis to 20 million variations, delivering a detailed, actionable report within six weeks.
The insights include caffeine consumption and absorption, inflammation and immune system performance, salt sensitivity and blood pressure, and fat distribution and muscle preservation, among other variables.
With their results in hand, customers gain access to personalized health tools, including custom-formulated, patented micro-bead 10X Precision Supplements designed for “optimal absorption and bioavailability to improve digestion, immunity, skin health, energy levels, and metabolic function.”
With their results, customers gain access to personalized health tools like the custom-formulated, patented micro-bead 10X Precision Supplements.The system is also paired with the 10X Precision IV Drip Therapy, branded as the only IV therapy designed using an individual’s unique genetic profile. Clients can book their bespoke IV therapy via a QR code on their report, provided at any Reviv or 10X Health clinic worldwide.
Global expansion targets
This milestone event marks the first expansion of Cardone Ventures’ portfolio company, 10X Health, outside the US. The UK launch is the first step in a strategic international rollout, followed by plans to expand to other key markets globally.
“This launch represents a monumental step in achieving our mission to revolutionize the health and wellness industry,” says Brandon Dawson, CEO of 10X Health and Cardone Ventures.
“By combining 10X’s precision genetic technology with Reviv’s proven expertise in personalized and precision health solutions, we’re delivering an unparalleled system that empowers individuals to optimize their health with unmatched accuracy and accessibility.”
In other recent developments in personalized nutrition, Nimble Science is upgrading healthcare services with its SIMBA Capsule, which collects and preserves precise samples directly from the small intestine when swallowed to advance personalized microbiome research.
Hologram Sciences recently spoke on AI’s potential to further accelerate the field at the 2024 World Economic Forum. Nutrition Insight caught up with the company’s co-founder and CEO about how its AI software optimizes dietary plans to an individual’s health and sustainability considerations.
In other developments in personalized dietary interventions, organic micronutrient start-up Biovit received £1.5 million (US$2,005,950) from Innovate UK last September to create the world’s “most accurate” AI-driven personalized nutrition system, set for a UK National Health Service trial this year.
Meanwhile, US nutrigenomics platform GenoPalate partnered with employee benefits company ThrivePass to offer access to personalized nutritional insights based on a person’s DNA. These include dietitian-crafted recipe bundles and personalized vitamin offerings to enhance individual wellness plans.
