Unveiling BetterLix: An Innovative AI-Powered App Fostering Liver Health and Well-being

By Alfred Mosley

Amsety, a leading company in liver health solutions, has unveiled its latest innovation – BetterLix, an AI-driven application serving as a sophisticated digital liver health coach. Crafted by a collaboration of liver health experts and mathematicians, BetterLix harnesses the capabilities of artificial intelligence along with the latest advancements in liver health research to devise personalized daily liver health strategies. These strategies encompass tailored recommendations for lifestyle and diet, specifically curated to address individual health requirements. BetterLix aims to combat the core issues contributing to the rising prevalence of liver diseases: suboptimal nutrition and unhealthy lifestyles.

The introduction of BetterLix is particularly timely given the current challenges faced by individuals with liver conditions. Over the past few decades, the United States has witnessed an alarming surge in fatty liver disease, affecting more than 100 million Americans. The majority of these cases are attributed to fatty liver disease, also known as metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Notably, poor nutrition and sedentary living stand out as the primary risk factors for the development of fatty liver disease. While limited pharmacological treatments exist, the significance of lifestyle adjustments, especially in diet, cannot be overstated – changes that BetterLix seeks to facilitate.

Despite the escalating prevalence of fatty liver disease in the U.S., resources providing guidance on maintaining a liver-healthy lifestyle are inadequately available. According to a survey conducted by Amsety at The AASLD Liver Meeting in 2023, 72% of liver health experts identify “improved nutrition guidelines” as the foremost priority in lifestyle interventions. Additionally, a staggering 92% of these experts advocate for the integration of digital tools offering guidance on liver-healthy living and nutrition for patients.

How does BetterLix operate? The app generates simple yet scientifically validated tasks seamlessly integrating into daily routines, assisting liver patients in establishing sustainable and long-term liver-healthy habits. These tasks are customized based on the individual preferences and profiles of each patient. The app facilitates adherence to a healthy lifestyle by delivering instant feedback and progress tracking. BetterLix adopts a holistic approach to liver disease, offering guidance on various aspects, including food and nutrition, exercise, sleep, workplace habits, mental health, and hydration.

For healthcare providers, BetterLix opens up more efficient avenues to reach and engage with liver patients, enhancing the overall management of liver health through innovative digital solutions.
