The company has raised \u20ac16 million ($17.2 million) in venture funding since its launch in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Combining biomarkers with innovative technology enables personalized supplements and coaching to truly empower people to take care of their health,&#8221; Teuber said. &#8220;Joining forces with <a href=\"https:\/\/lifesum.com\/\">Lifesum<\/a> allows us to provide consumers with unparalleled insights (into) their health. Our shared vision to improve health and well-being through a personalized approach makes it possible to leverage our offerings at scale.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last month, Lifesum highlighted a growing concern following a survey of 5,000 individuals: one in six U.S. employees consider themselves <a href=\"https:\/\/athletechnews.com\/americans-workplace-eating-habits-ultra-processed-foods-lifesum\/\">addicted to ultra-processed foods<\/a>. Aside from the impacts of ultra-processed foods (such as packaged baked foods, sugar-based cereals and ready meals) on mood, energy and cognitive function, such foods in this group are associated with a higher risk of cardiometabolic issues, according to one<a href=\"https:\/\/bmjopen.bmj.com\/content\/6\/3\/e009892\"> study<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lifesum Eyes &#8216;Advanced Wellness&#8217;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The healthy eating platform has launched several initiatives in the last year, including<a href=\"https:\/\/athletechnews.com\/lifesum-launches-hormonal-meal-plan\/\"> hormonal meal plans<\/a> and safe fasting plans, but Falk says the Lykon deal defines the next chapter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This is more than an acquisition; it marks the next important stage in Lifesum&#8217;s transformation into an advanced wellness platform,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Through this transaction, we can integrate Lykon&#8217;s pioneering technology to revolutionize our service and value delivered to our users.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Biomarker Testing on the Rise<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Biomarker testing is on its way to becoming as commonplace as dumbbells in gyms.
