The Dawn of a New Era in Health is Here
Kihealth is a life sciences company focused on research, development and commercialization of novel diagnostics, products and services for the treatment of metabolic disease and related indications.
The diabetes diagnostics today look only at blood sugar leaving 1/3 of the people undiagnosed.
There is a high rate of false positives with current diagnostic options and inaccurate results based on diet and hemoglobin traits.
People deserve a more accurate and early predictor for diabetes
1/3 people are undiagnosed
25% of children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes are misdiagnosed initially, leading to 18% getting DKA. We can reduce the death rate in children through early detection.
25% of children are misdiagnosed
Diabetes It is the 7th leading cause of death in the United States. Early detection and acute intervention can delay or mitigate onset of disease and reduce the death rate.
1.1 million people died of diabetes last year
People deserve to live their lives to the fullest.
The key
to longevity
By focusing on the root cause of disease we have the opportunity to prevent the onset of disease. We are paving the way for prevention with new science and unlocking the answers to how to prevent people from developing metabolic diseases that do not have a cure.
We aim to bring this approach to disrupt the status quo and give people the keys to longevity and high-quality of life.
Transforming the approach
We are seeking to arm people with the knowledge of their risk of developing diabetes long before they experience symptoms and when they have an opportunity to intervene and prevent or delay onset of disease.
We are bringing novel, first in class diagnostics to the market through revolutionary approaches and partnerships with leading education institutions like Yale University.
We are bringing forward a new era in how disease is tracked and prevented.
The first diagnostic that will offer the earliest detection for diabetes.
Our diabetes diagnostic test
Our test will become the leading diagnostic tool to track and inform people of the onset or potential onset of Diabetes. Arming consumers with the knowledge they need to prevent and prepare from the comfort of home.
Our test uses a proprietary measure to identify and detect potential onset of type 1 and the development of pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Our test will revolutionize the identification and potential treatment options for the most expensive disease in the world.
The test is designed to compliment the current method of identifying diabetes, the A1c Test, and can be used to manage diabetes through identifying the severity of β-cell death.
Although the A1c Test is currently recognized as the gold standard test in Diabetes management, our data supports that our test identifies Diabetes in people earlier than the A1c Test.
Early detection of Diabetes provides various benefits including, but not limited to, the potential for earlier treatments and lessened severity of the disease as a result.
