Managing Blood Sugar & Enhancing Longevity with Anttonni Aniebonam High Performance Health
-
- Alternative Health
Anttoni Aniebonam is the Co-Founder and CEO of Veri – a food intelligence company that helps people understand their optimal diet to improve the state of their metabolic health.
He talks with Angela about how Veri works and why understanding which foods impact your blood sugar levels is key in achieving good body composition, health and longevity
There are many small things you can do to support good metabolic health including effective food pairing and this episode provides great content and insight into the huge importance of understanding where your metabolic health is and how you can improve and optimise it
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The sensor is like having a bio lab in the back of your arm monitoring your glucose levels every 5 minutes as it tracks your interstitial fluid
We talk about what we eat instead of how we eat which has a huge impact
It’s about understanding what’s on your plate and Veri scores every item of food. The scoring data helps people to stay within their optimal range
The App takes all the background information to set the optimal range for an individual. The range is dynamic and personalised to the individual
Sleep has a huge impact on glucose levels and has to be factored in
Glucose impacts many areas, it’s what the modern human runs on. 90% of human body energy production happens in the citric cycle through glucose and ATP production
Your glucose spikes differently according to the type of exercise you are doing
True metabolic flexibility means you can recover quickly from exercise with your blood sugar rapidly returning to normal
Everyone wants to understand where they are, the state of their metabolic health and how they can improve it
Traditionally there has been a binary view but at Veri, we see it as a spectrum with your body sending you signals
We want to help people distinguish where they are now and how they can get back to their optimal place
BEST MOMENTS
‘It’s an interface I’ve really enjoyed using’
‘We believe seeing is believing and that’s what we are trying to manifest in the App every
single day’
‘When we are looking at calories in and calories out we are not looking at the full picture’

ABOUT THE GUEST
Anttoni Aniebonam is the Co-Founder and CEO of Veri – a food intelligence company that helps people understand their optimal diet to improve the state of their metabolic health.
Numbers-wise, Veri raised $4 million in funding to start shipping its glucose sensor and has over 50,000 people on its waitlist.
“I'll never forget the pain and confusion I endured momentarily losing my health in my teens. An injury changed my outlook on life and brought with it various issues related to weight management and wellbeing. I lost touch with my body forcing me to get to know it again.
I tracked calories, cycled macros, tested out various diets. Through trial and error, I got back to balance. Stronger than ever.
Throughout the journey, I experienced first-hand, the pain of using the poor and ineffective tools, the misinformation, and the one-size-fits-all guidance of nutrition. And also how the healthcare system is unwilling to transform and *actually* help us get healthier.
Funnily, ever since my teens, I've been captivated to solve the crisis of poor health. It started with me fighting my own battles. Today it's us helping you fight yours. To help you intrinsically know your body. Realize how unique it is and what it favours –and then finally unlock a new level of wellbeing.
Thinking back now, my misfortune has been my biggest blessing”.
