Routine medical screenings often provide a general overview of health, but they don’t always catch everything. Breathermae, a San Diego-based health startup, is working to address this gap by offering diagnostic tests that go beyond standard blood work, especially for issues related to digestion, inflammation, and food sensitivities.
Looking Beyond “Normal” Results
Many people experience persistent symptoms like fatigue, joint pain, or digestive discomfort even when their traditional lab results come back within normal ranges. Breathermae’s approach uses more detailed testing methods to explore potential underlying causes that might otherwise be missed.
Case in Point
In one example, a 54-year-old executive sought answers for ongoing joint pain and frequent headaches. While standard tests showed no clear issues, a deeper analysis through Breathermae’s digestive protocol revealed gut imbalances and food sensitivities, including reactions to corn, dairy protein, black pepper, cashews, and paprika. After making dietary and lifestyle changes based on the findings—including eliminating certain trigger foods and adding targeted supplements—the individual reported noticeable improvements within three months: better digestion, improved sleep, reduced pain, and increased energy.
A Broader Health Perspective
The Breathermae model integrates advanced testing with personalized treatment recommendations from functional medicine physicians. Their goal is to help individuals understand the root causes of ongoing health issues, rather than just managing symptoms.
Looking Ahead
The team also plans to expand their offerings, including tools like mobile apps, wearable integrations, and food retailer partnerships to help individuals make informed dietary choices aligned with their sensitivities.
