València, February 14 (EFE). – Based in Valencia for its global expansion and with a unique method of analysis, the emerging company epiXlife studies food shortages caused by it and how they affect environmental factors and emotions to develop personalized plans that optimize nutrition and wellness.
The health platform (E-Health) uses epigenetics – a branch of genetics that measures how genes are expressed based on food, the environment and emotions – to analyze and interpret health from different viewpoints and to help change lifestyle and eating habits .
LATEST GERMAN TECHNOLOGY BUT WITH A UNIQUE AND DYNAMIC METHOD
The technical director, Esteban Monzó, explains to EFE that his work is based on the technology of a German laboratory that uses epigenetics via a powerful biomarker, her, but with the difference that with its ‘unique’ method, users do not need to buy devices or be personal to create the reports.
“As a result of the pandemic, we came up with a more dynamic platform that would analyze not only epigenetic but other technologies as well, and allow a person from home to access the web to request a report on how they feel inside, how their system is immune system and how it can improve your health, ”he explains.
Thus, at the end of 2020, the epiXlife platform was born, which allows both professional centers and people from home to receive packages of instructions from home and send the information in the kit to create the report and obtain the results via the web.
ANALYSIS WITH SIX STRAPS OF HAIR
The analysis of how it affects food, the environment and the emotional state is done by the German laboratory in which epiXlife bases its epigenetic technology through a biological marker “which is very powerful at the genetic and epigenetic level, the hair”.
“The person enters the platform, fills in a series of very simple and basic data and asks for the technology. When it arrives, all he has to do is pull himself off with a pair of tweezers attached to his root and with this we are already analyzing. genetic expression, “he emphasizes.
Its main advantage is that it is “a very minimally invasive technology, you don’t have to prick yourself or even take off your clothes”, emphasizing that the company is able to analyze the same data as laboratories in Germany thanks to its operation center in Valencia.
“The hair is sent to Valencia for analysis and the user receives the results on the same platform it was registered on. It gives the results and their interpretation, and helps you with a follow-up plan to change your lifestyle,” influences.
Specifically “identifies, improves and corrects” areas of the body that need to be improved, detecting foods that cause stress in the digestive system, nutritional deficiencies or their impact on the immune system and how environmental and emotional factors affect the body to provide “a nutritional solution. that can amplify and correct these imbalances ”.
It is not just about developing a personalized diet, but also about a complete plan to change habits and cleanse the body if necessary, or to strengthen the immune, cardiovascular or muscular systems.
“These are personalized guidelines that you can change on a global and multidisciplinary level, because it does not help me to eat very healthy when you sit on the couch watching TV all day. Working on health from different points of view and that is a spectacular” judgment.
AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
Monzó assures that a technology that not only diets but also ecological, emotional and metabolic “needs in Spain does not exist”, with the added value of being an e-health platform open to analyze from a covid test to a strip of urine or blood. “
“With Covid, we realized we had a fantastic defense system, but it was abandoned and we don’t know how to defend ourselves against external aggressions. Suddenly a virus arrives and immunosuppressed people have attacked them with incredible virulence,” emphasizes he.
For this reason, he sees that one of the most important aspects of his analysis is the immune system: ‘We must become aware that the personal army that protects us must be trained to be prepared for any kind of aggression. full report that we help a lot. “
BASIC, SPORTS AND VEGAN REPORTS
Included in the Insomnia de València platform, EpiXlife has an international team of about ten people, with the support of fifteen doctors and nutritionists from around the world and a test that identifies 40 parameters for three different types of reports, basic, sports – and vegans, for a price between 100 and 170 euros.
The most common report is wellness and immune system optimization, which “is what everyone does” and you can take the full information or the sections that are of most interest.
For elite athletes, the report takes a different approach, as these professionals not only seek to improve their diet and habits, but also achieve performance, and it is about “bringing the two fields together.”
The third type of report is aimed at those who claim that a vegan lifestyle is “becoming more fashionable” and want to know the possible shortcomings their diet may have or what they can amplify, which gives them “added value”.
FROM SPAIN TO SERBIA THROUGH DUBAI
EpiXlife is headquartered in Valencia but from this city acts as an intermediary for companies from different countries that have the technology and want these reports available for their customers.
In addition to Spain, they have reached the United States, Mexico, Colombia, France, Serbia, Russia and even Dubai and are about to launch in the Italian market.
“Our technology adapts to any market, such as Arabic or Jewish. It depends who you are, it will guide you according to your lifestyle, your nutritional education and even your religion and there are few technologies in the world that do that. “, He concludes.
The platform is currently offered in six languages - Spanish, English, Russian, Italian, Polish and French – and will reach fifteen soon, including Serbian and Chinese. EFE
