Instead of generic advice like “eat more fibre,” consumers in Singapore may receive recommendations shaped by their own biology and goals in the near future. This will be enabled by a precision​​ nutrition ​​programme based on a collaboration between Google and local health-tech start-up Amili.

Using​​ Google’s ​​technology ​​stack, ​​the​​ programme ​​analyses Amili’s ​​large-scale ​​Asian​​microbiome, ​​health,​ ​and​ ​lifestyle​ ​data​ ​to​​develop a ​​digital ​​classification ​​framework ​​that​​groups​ ​individuals​​by ​​their ​​health​ ​and ​​microbiome ​​profiles. After which, the tool leverages Gemini’s reasoning capabilities to translate microbiome and users’ health insights into personalised coaching and guidance.

To scale the impact, Google and Amili are exploring further collaboration with the National Healthcare Group to bring the tool as part of a wider precision nutrition programme in Singapore.
