From artificial intelligence to personalized nutrition, technology is bringing about a full range of changes in the 21st century from physical senses to functions. Recently, By-Health took the lead in launching the first personalized vitamin concept product at the "Definition of Nutrition Wisdom" conference, bringing new breakthroughs to related research and development in the field of precision nutrition.

Tomson By-Health released this time personalized customized vitamin concept products, each capsule contains more than 50 2mm size vitamin micropliers, can achieve more than 50 million kinds of nutrient combinations, 1 per day can be targeted to supplement the 9 kinds of vitamins needed by individuals for a day, and more types of nutrients will be added in the future.

The experiencer only needs to use the simple and convenient fingertip minimally invasive blood collection instrument to collect blood samples on their own, detect the level of multiple vitamin minerals in the experiencer's body through dry blood spot technology, compare the population database with the blessing of big data and intelligent algorithms, combine intelligent analysis, and then use vitamin micropack capsule production technology to customize personalized vitamin concept products (capsules). Experiencers can also adjust and iterate in a timely manner through dynamic monitoring and evaluation.

It is understood that personalized customized vitamin concept products are based on diet and lifestyle analysis, epitype analysis, genotype analysis of the three dimensions of comprehensive detection and evaluation; on the basis of the multi-dimensional accurate analysis of "thousands of faces", comprehensive consideration of the convenience and dynamic needs of detection, with dry blood spot detection technology for individuals to carry out personalized demand analysis of 9 vitamins and 8 trace elements, using online tools to provide test reports, generate personal nutrition portraits, and quickly produce exclusive personalized customized vitamins, For the first time, a complete closed loop of "detection-assessment-intervention-monitoring" has been formed, which has promoted the application and transformation of precision nutrition.

Every life is unique, and health has only a market for everyone, not a mass market. With the gradual transformation of people's awareness of nutrition consumption from "popularization" to "personalization", precision nutrition research has become the research frontier and hotspot of experts in the field of life and nutrition sciences around the world, and more and more scientific research institutions and enterprises have begun to lay out precision nutrition and promote the transformation of personalized nutrition concepts into applications.

However, due to the complexity of its design, the difficulty of analysis, and the high technical cost, precision nutrition solutions have not been able to form a comprehensive precision nutrition solution that dynamically adjusts to the individual's health status. How to meet the personalized needs of "multi-dimensionality, accuracy, convenience, and dynamics", design, develop and verify, and provide complete nutritional solutions for reducing disease risk factors or improving health conditions, which has become the breakthrough of precision nutrition application transformation.

Zhang Xuguang, executive director of By-Health Nutrition and Health Research Institute and director of science and technology center, introduced that the By-Health personalized vitamin research project, which lasted 5 years and invested more than 10 million, independently built the first fully automatic online dry blood spot detection center in China, developed the first personalized vitamin production equipment equipped with core algorithms, and united the world's top scientific research institutions such as the Rovert Institute of the University of Aberdeen in the United Kingdom, BASF in Germany, more than 100 experts in the fields of medicine, nutrition and other fields, and through the in-depth cooperation of hospitals. Establish databases, evaluation systems and algorithm models to conduct research on testing projects such as vitamins, minerals and trace elements of dried blood spots.
