The Viatitude Midlife Brain Reset App is for women in midlife who are starting to notice that things are not quite how they used to be! The Viatitude Midlife Brain Reset will be a companion app that will provide the user with personalised nutrition and lifestyle guidance based on their habits as well as data insights from their lab tests. 

To get started, the user will do two things: 

1. complete a habit questionnaire to build their User Habit Profile

2. upload lab test results such as blood tests, gene tests, epigenetic tests or stool tests

The personalised guidance for nutrition and lifestyle changes is based on both their habits and circumstances as well as insights from their test results.

While we are working on the Viatitude Midlife Brain Reset App, we are offering the Viatitude Brain Health MOT Report. Based on their User Habit Profile - i.e. the user completed habit questionnaire -  the user will receive a report with personalised, specific and actionable guidance on simple daily Nutrition and Lifestyle changes you can make to restore and maintain healthy brain function.

The Brain Health MOT Report is aimed at users over the age of 35, both male and females.

All guidance is based on published and peer reviewed clinical data.

The Brain Health MOT Report gives you: 

personalised, specific and actionable guidance on simple daily Nutrition and Lifestyle changes you can make to restore and maintain healthy brain function.

The process to get your Viatitude Brain Health MOT Report is very easy:

1. You complete your Nutrition & Lifestyle Habit Questionnaire - you can have a quick video chat beforehand if you want to

2. Within 3 business days after that you will receive your Brain Health MOT Report with your New Personalised Brain-healthy Habits, that you can incorporate into your daily life in your own time

Your GP follows the Conventional Medicine model - i.e. they address and manage symptoms primarily with pharmaceuticals. In contrast, the Viatitute Nutrition & Lifestyle Brain Health MOT follows the Functional Medicine model. Functional Medicine uses targeted nutrition and lifestyle interventions to address the underlying issues that might - or already have - lead to disease.

The reasons why the Functional Medicine approach has not replaced the Conventional Medicine model - despite the incredibly encouraging results especially in the field of chronic health conditions including Alzheimer’s Disease - are multi-factorial:

On the one hand the Functional Medicine approach is much more time-intense and therefore more expensive than the Conventional approach and would over-burden health care systems. Also, most medical professionals are entirely Conventionally trained and unfamiliar with the Functional approach - which is why realistically Functional care could not be delivered at scale at this point in time.

On the other hand, the wider population is still expecting modern medical treatment to be Conventional (i.e. pharmaceutical - following the 'A-Pill-for-An-Ill Approach') and is unlikely to understand or agree with the Functional Medicine approach, which would require the patient to take some interest in and responsibility for their own health.

And finally, the great financial interests in the Conventional Medicine model are very unlikely to allow a large scale shift towards the Functional Medicine model any time soon.

Viatitude  Health Ltd is a London/ UK based start-up founded on a deep passion for brain health. The founder Martina herself had experienced gradual drastic loss of cognitive function due to a neurodegenerative autoimmune condition. She eventually returned to life and full cognitive function with nutrition and lifestyle interventions alone.

At the time of her diagnosis, no pharmaceutical option was made available to her. Therefore Martina had no choice but to figure it out herself - through reading and endless trial and error. After 15 years her cognitive function had gradually returned, when she realised that a new medical discipline had emerged: ‘Functional Medicine’. Functional Medicine is a field in medicine that is dedicated to reinstating and maintaining full human function merely with interventions that the human body is naturally optimised for - i.e. nutrition and lifestyle.

Martina gained an MSc (CNELM) in the field of Personalised Nutrition/ Functional Medicine with specific focus on brain health and Alzheimer’s Disease prevention - initially to understand her own illness and return to life. Making this knowledge available and actionable more widely is what Viatitude Health is all about.
