On this week’s StartUp Health NOW episode, we're talking about the future of gut health with Jeff Glueck, CEO & Co-founder of Salvo Health, and Swathi Arulguppe, CEO & Founder at BetterMeal AI. There's no doubt gut health is having a moment. For a long time, health issues in the gut, like irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn's disease, were met with outdated pamphlets about diets. The result was millions of people suffering in silence with painful, life-limiting conditions. It's not that GI doctors didn't want to help. There just didn't seem to be a lot that they could do. Thankfully our understanding of the importance of gut health – and its connection to mental health and whole health – has resulted in a wave of innovation. And on this podcast episode, we’ll talk to some amazing entrepreneurs working to break this cycle and bring relief to patients. Our first guest, Jeff Glueck was the CEO of Foursquare before he co-founded Salvo Health. He's taking on gut health from two innovative angles. The first is through the establishment of a digital clinic which makes specialty GI care available to patients at scale and on demand. Second, Glueck and his team are capitalizing on the latest research connecting gut health to mental health and other conditions. This connection between the gut microbiome and whole health is just exploding and Salvo is helping patients stay on the cutting edge. Then we'll check in with Swathi Arulguppe, CEO & Founder of BetterMeal AI. You'll hear how Arulguppe has taken her own journey with a debilitating GI condition, combined it with her passion for data, and built a platform for helping deliver AI-driven personalized meal recommendations to patients. By understanding the biological connections between human gut and food at the deepest level, she has built an app that helps guide its users on how to best manage their gut health through their nutrition. Let's jump in and find out where we are in gut health innovation. — Innovators: Health Transformer University fuels your health moonshot Funders: Become a Health Moonshot Champion Want more content like this?

Host Jeremy Quinby has a conversation with Franks Davis, founder and CEO of Optivida. As a child, Frank had every conceivable childhood disease (mumps, measles, pneumonia) and struggled throughout childhood and adolescence with a compromised immune system –leading to a constant battle to stay healthy and enjoy all the sports he loved. In his early 40’s after dealing with hepatitis (twice), mononucleosis (twice), and pneumonia (twice), Frank ended up with chronic fatigue syndrome which incapacitated him. He became obsessed with finding a way to rebuild his depleted system and developed a line of whole food supplements that packed more nutrients without the additive synthetic fillers. He shares his process of this development and how he was able to rebuild his health and thrive into his late 70's. https://www.optividahealth.com/discount/Highway15 https://www.highwayto.health/
