Healthtech startup MetaGO launched by Kunal Kapoor and Ketto cofounders aims to address obesity and related metabolic conditions through early intervention and personalized treatment plans.
Imagine a program that helps people who are getting fatter and might get sick soon. It looks at their bodies very closely to find out what's wrong early, before they need doctors to help them. Then it gives them special advice about food and medicine to keep them healthy longer.
