Food, exercise, and medicine impact each of our bodies differently, so there is no simple general answer to how eating a specific food will impact your blood glucose levels. While general guidance has existed for some time regarding the effect of dietary composition on blood glucose of people with diabetes, the reality is that a ‘one-glove-fits-all’ approach does not work. January has been working hard to develop technology to provide individualized predictions about the glucose response to specific meals – a breakthrough that’s included as part of January’s Season of Me program!

From your very first day in the program, our AI learns about your lifestyle through your food logs, heart rate, and CGM data. You will participate in daily tasks, which help train our algorithm to create your personalized glucose curve. Once it gets to know you, the AI will accurately predict the effect of different foods and activities on your glucose for the next 33 hours. Using these predictions, the AI then recommends foods and activities designed to keep your blood glucose within a target range.
