Prescription digital therapeutics.

Software as medicine. Nutrition as active substance.

About us

Perfood is research-oriented digital therapeutics company. We develop innovative solutions to prevent and treat diseases by using personalized low-glycemic diet as a digital biomarker and „active ingredient“. Our approach has its roots in the Institute for Nutritional Medicine at the University of Lubeck, one of Germany’s premier medical schools.


glucose metabolism

The glucose metabolism has been linked to weight gain and systemic inflammation. Strong variation in glycemic responses have been associated with several diseases, such as Type 2 Diabetes, obesity, migraines, PCOS, psoriasis and many more. Generalized low-glycemic dietary interventions have shown short-term results but failed to deliver lasting effectiveness. 

At Perfood, we have developed a unique approach by giving personalized low-glycemic diet recommendations and embedding it into diseases-specific digital coaching programs. As a result, we observe lasting adherence and effectiveness.
