It can take months from the time that a traditional supplement is produced to the time that it hits store shelves. This is problematic because vitamins degrade and lose their potency over time. In fact, a study carried out by Labstore showed that almost 50% of supplement products on store shelves only have a six-month shelf life. In addition, traditional supplements are completely untailored to the individual, which means that many people are consuming less than or more than twice the dosage of certain nutrients they need. Nutrigene is changing all of this. As a personalized health platform that aggregates consumer health data and employs algorithmic technology to create tailored dosages of vitamins, minerals and proteins for individuals, Nutrigene is helping people achieve various health goals. Whether a person wants to increase their energy or performance levels throughout the day, boost longevity, or address particular health conditions such as IBS and Crohn's disease, Nutrigene's product holds promise and has already shown success in many individuals. Here's how it works: once you fill out a quick survey, provide information regarding your basic health profile and upload any related health data (such as lab test results or genetic info), the team at Nutrigene will begin making the tailored supplement not more than a day later. In order to preserve purity and potency, the appropriate doses are packaged in small, individualized vials and delivered to your door. Mix it into your morning smoothie or a simple glass of water and you're good to go. Min FitzGerald is the co-founder and CEO of Nutrigene, and she joins us to fill in all the details of how the product works, provide surprising anecdotal evidence and discuss some of the FDA-approved devices they are beginning to partner with, including one that monitors heart age over time.

Real estate startup, Crypto Real Estate AG, is launching a new token, SwissRealCoin (SRC), and is hoping to disrupt the real estate market with the use of blockchain technology. . Their goals are tri-fold. They aim to make property management transparent and efficient by using the blockchain to make secure, quick and ledgered payments. Additional uses will be to document ownership, the history and contact information of past and current tenants, etc. When stored on the blockchain they will forever remain unchanged. Third, Crypto Real Estate AG hopes to make real estate shares that can be traded simply by tokens. SRC will be traded uninterrupted and will have enough liquidity to avoid the instability that often plagues other tokens. Adding additional stability, the Swiss real estate market is folded into one of the world's most stable economies making it an ideal playing field for this kind of disruption.In this interview SwissRealCoin CEO and Head of Real Estate, Brigitte Luginbuhl, breaks down the methodology behind the token as we eagerly await the ICO launch date of May 23, 2018.

It's been reported that almost 45% of the US population suffers from one of four refractive errors in vision, the most common of which is called presbyopia, an age-related condition that decreases a person's ability to focus on objects in front of them. To varying degrees, this problem affects every single person who is over the age of 35 and only progresses with time. Until now, this problem has remained entirely unaddressed by the scientific community. Tridib Ghosh is the CEO, director, and co-founder of Sharp Eyes, a company that is creating programmable liquid lenses which have the ability to correct presbyopia by changing their curvature in direct accordance with an object that's within the user's gaze. The technology uses an eye tracking system that calculates the exact distance between an object and the user and changes shape accordingly in order to bring that object into complete focus for the user. The change occurs within a fraction of a second so that the user never feels like they're losing eye power. Furthermore, the lenses can be updated by programming new data as it relates to the progressive deterioration of the user's vision over time. As it turns out, these lenses will also address the other refractive errors in vision-myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. The team at Sharp Eyes is preparing to test their prototype on actual patients in order to see what further optimizations might be needed before launching the first-generation product. Tune in for the details.
