Journeys Metabolic 1.0.15

Journeys Metabolic facilitates connections among patients, healthcare providers, study participants, and health systems, fostering an integrated approach to metabolic health management. The program supports providers by delivering essential resources and guidance for implementing behavioral and lifestyle modifications that can enhance metabolic well-being.

Recommended by healthcare professionals, Journeys Metabolic serves as an extension of primary care into the home environment. It is important to note that the program does not engage in the treatment or diagnosis of medical conditions. A notable feature of the app is its integration with Readout Health's Biosense ketone device, which has received regulatory clearance for use in the United States as a Class 1 medical device. This classification indicates compliance with FDA standards for safety and effectiveness in its designated use. The device accurately measures breath acetone levels, providing valuable insights into nutritional ketosis and overall metabolic health without relying on invasive blood testing.

Users are given the option to utilize glucose and ketone meters to gather personal data relating to their lifestyle changes. This data serves as feedback for users, helping them understand how their modifications impact their health, but it is not intended for diagnosis or treatment purposes. Users are advised to consult their healthcare providers in conjunction with using the app when making medical decisions.

The program emphasizes a holistic approach to metabolic health through behavior change and self-actualization, aiming for sustainable long-term benefits. Participants benefit from a platform that offers daily curated content designed for ongoing success, along with AI-powered food tracking and tailored macronutrient goals centered around a Mediterranean dietary approach. Key concepts incorporated into the program include extrinsic motivation, self-compassion, goal setting, carbohydrate modification, sleep optimization, physical activity promotion, and leadership development.
