Virta Health

and actually their kind of um platform and the evidence that is coming out from Virta Health is actually quite interesting, and it's kind of ongoing as they continue to grow uh more and more patient uh put more and more patients into this um long-term trial.

Thank you Halle Tecco, MPH, MBA for featuring multiple AI products I've had the chance to help bring to life both at Virta Health and Honor ! A common thread across both: finding ways to take the "magic" that used to live only in people’s heads and convert it into impact at scale. At Virta Health , Metabolic Intelligence helps members understand how their bodies uniquely respond to different foods. This allows us to offer personalized, in-the-moment guidance that makes it as easy as possible for them to reach their health goals across a range of conditions. Appreciate the spotlight, and even more so being part of a team that makes this kind of work a reality.

🔔 Gang! There are a handful of Software Engineering roles JUST dropped in my group at Virta Health 💙! Come work on the systems that support our care teams and members reverse metabolic disease. Fully remote, with office hubs in Denver (with me!) and SF (with lots of other cool people). Apply through this link, or reach out to me if you want more info! https://lnkd.in/ghgQnWbp

Pretty incredible new Metabolic Disease Reversal evidence from Virta Health . -- Challenge: MASLD, MASH and Advanced liver disease (previously "Fatty Liver Diseases") cost ~$100 Billion+ per year and some $16k-$300k/patient/yr in the U.S. alone with limited existing treatment options and a handful of new (very expensive) drugs in the clinical trial pipeline. Very concerning. -- Our Virta dream: We hypothesized that our individualized nutrition treatment addressing the root cause of metabolic disease could potentially reverse or prevent fatty liver diseases across the disease continuum. We already have published data showing systematic and sustained T2 Diabetes, Obesity and CVD reversal/improvement, so we were hopeful. -- NEW peer-reviewed evidence: Our new data (published in journal Hepatology) from more than 10,000 matched adult patients showed that the Virta Health individualized nutrition treatment delivered 45% to 75% lower rates of MASH, advanced liver disease, and liver complications than the carefully matched control. The study demonstrated lower rates of FDA-relevant liver endpoints in real-world practice, independent of medication use, reinforcing the power of addressing metabolic health itself using individualized nutrition to prevent liver disease progression. I'm blown away by these results and something we could only dream of in 2015 when we started Virta. This paper is yet another proof point that we can reverse and prevent liver disease progression similar to other Metabolic Disease driven conditions, rather than the "status quo gold standard" of managing them after the fact. Metabolic Disease Reversal (vs. disease management of the past) is the future and will lower costs for all payers, while improving and saving patient lives. As someone who didn't grow up as a medical doctor, I still can't believe I can call scaling Virta Health my "job" with results like this. (Stay tuned -- even more new outcome data to come before summer) Full paper: https://lnkd.in/gjbeT7dp
