"I'm a tech guy / ex-athlete who became a big believer in this idea that food can get you sick, and food can also become the best medicine that you have," states Ari Tulla, CEO and Co-Founder of Elo. On their site they mention their vision is to "transform food from the cause of disease to medicine."
Ari is a serial entrepreneur and was an early investor in the (now very popular!) Oura ring.
When it comes to nutrition, where there's so much information
changing (it seems!) weekly. Tulla says, "There's so many people
who are giving you guidance and-really-it's like, 'I already have
enough information!' So it's not about that. I can go online and
find what I need, but to change behavior? It has to be made so
easy that the new change makes your life easier than it was
before."
Elo aims to be the flag bearer for becoming the first
"biomarker-first" and "smart nutrition" company. They built a
cutting edge AI from a proprietary analysis of 3,000 peer-reviewed
studies, and by looking at various biomarker data, Elo takes
"custom" to another level. They look at sleep activity, recovery,
glucose, weight, and much more. There is nobody else doing exactly
what Elo is doing and everything was built from the ground
up.
