Tracking Habits, Building Change: A Lifestyle Companion for Prediabetes Support

Prediabetes is a potentially serious condition that affects as many as 98 million Americans. One in three American adults lives with prediabetes, and it’s currently believed that as many as 80 percent of those with the condition don’t even know they have it.

Prediabetes frequently goes undiagnosed. According to the CDC, being unaware of your status can lead to serious health concerns such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. Unfortunately, just making people aware of the dangers of prediabetes isn’t always enough.

Old Problems, Modern Solutions

While doctors often advise lifestyle changes to combat prediabetes, they don’t always have the time or resources to provide adequate guidance, and fad diets and influencers aren’t always informed by proven nutritional science. Nutu™ is a personalized health and lifestyle platform created by Willow Laboratories to address this problem by providing sustainable wellness through gradual and achievable steps based on real medical science.

Innovating for Health

Based in Irvine, California, Willow Laboratories is a health and wellness innovator that holds 127 issued and 48 pending patents. The company’s Masimo Rainbow Signal Extraction Technology® is used by leading hospitals globally for the accurate monitoring of oxygen saturation and pulse rate. Building on its success in helping healthcare workers care for their patients, Willow Laboratories has turned its attention to tackling one of the most pressing health concerns of our modern era.

Your Personalized Health Companion

Nutu™ provides a personalized Nutu Score that measures your health balance based on factors such as your nutrition, activity, sleep, and biometric data. The Nutu program suggests small, achievable changes—“Nutu nudges”—that can lead to significant, long-term results. Nutu users can track their progress, lose weight, adopt healthier habits, and learn to maintain a long-lasting healthy lifestyle, one helpful Nutu nudge at a time!

What people are saying about Nutu™:

“The biggest feature is the ability to see how my food choices compare—whether it be what I make at home or at restaurants—and what I can do to improve my choices. The numeric scale helps me with making better choices, or even how my “guilty pleasure” options will impact me. I’ve found Nutu™ to be easy to use and a great way to stay on a course to help me stay on track for good health.” – Guy B, 2024 Nutu User

“[Prediabetes] is something that I have struggled with over the years, and I wanted to try a new approach. I’ve actually seen my blood pressure come down as well as my weight, so that for me is key! I would recommend the app to people who are trying to get a hold on this, and it’s something you can do by yourself. It’s pretty powerful, and it’s right there in your pocket.” – Kathy, 2024 Nutu User

Tools for Lasting Change

Nutu™ offers a wide range of features to support users and empower those already impacted by prediabetes. The platform strives to help change lives, including offering tools such as food, sleep, and exercise logging, a virtual coach, and daily reporting. It’s like having an assistant right in your pocket.

Nutu is a supportive tool for monitoring habits, celebrating progress, and staying motivated. It’s an easy way to stay on track. Nutu’s digital lifestyle program can help you succeed in lowering your blood sugar and taking back your life. Life moves fast, and so can you—toward better health.
