Apple Tests Innovative Health App to Combat Prediabetes and Promote Wellness

Becker's Hospital Review

Contributed by: Bill Russell
Summary
Apple is testing a new healthcare app aimed at helping individuals with prediabetes manage their nutrition and lifestyle choices. Conducted earlier this year with select employees, the trials required participants to confirm their prediabetic status and monitor their blood sugar levels alongside food intake. The app educates users on the impacts of specific foods on blood sugar, promoting healthier habits to prevent Type 2 diabetes. Although there are no plans for a public release at this stage, Apple may integrate these findings into future health products, potentially including a noninvasive glucose monitor. The app's testing is currently paused as the company refocuses its efforts.
