"Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest person whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him / her"
Gandhiji’s Talisman
Over 25% of adults suffer from metabolic health conditions such as obesity, Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes, Hypertension, High Cholesterols or Triglycerides or PCOS. Left undiagnosed or uncontrolled, these conditions can lead to heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure, vision loss, amputations, nerve, cognitive and sexual disorders. These diseases also cause severe economic burden pushing millions into poverty every year.
Vision
Freedom from chronic lifestyle diseases
Mission
Help members transform their health through safe, science-led and tech-powered health coaching and physician coordination
This problem has grown 3X over the last 20 years because of our changing eating patterns from traditional foods to sugary, refined foods at all hours and sedentary, stressful lifestyles. The scale of this crisis will double in the next 15 years as per projections from the International Diabetes Federation
At The Good Health Clinic, we help members address the root cause of these diseases – insulin resistance. They address this by switching to safe and science-led meal, exercise, stress and sleep plans. We aim to reverse the root cause, not just the symptoms. We also work with our members’ doctors as they modify prescriptions given improving biomarkers and higher prescription adherence
Values
Root cause reversal
Member-centric
Safe and sustainable
Science-led
Technology-powered
