Personalized lifestyle recommendations based on artificial intelligence (AI) and polygenic risk scores (PRS)
"Personalized lifestyle intervention that integrates artificial intelligence (AI), polygenic risk scores (PRS), and real-time behavioral and environmental data. MyBETTER4U dynamically adapts to individual needs by combining genetic and biological profiling (e.g., PRS, microbiome, metabolomics), behavioral determinants (e.g., eating habits, physical activity, sleep patterns), sociodemographic and environmental context, technology-assisted self-monitoring through wearable devices and digital tools, and AI-driven decision-support systems that generate ongoing, individualized recommendations.~Intervention group participants will receive personalized recommendations via the Better4U Platform, based on the AI model and, when available, their PRS and genetic data. Since genotyping results depend on sample processing timelines, baseline visits should be scheduled when results are available or expected within 1.5 months to ensure inclusion in the next visit."
Standard care: lifestyle counselling, healthy eating leaflet, and hyocaloric diet targeting ≥5% weight loss in 6 months.
"Participants will receive feedback and counselling from the implementers on their weight status and lifestyle behaviours, based on their measurements/responses during the screening assessment. This counselling will be based on the general healthy eating (based on the Mediterranean diet) and healthy lifestyle recommendations for physical activity, sedentary time, and sleep (based on WHO recommendations) and will be considered the standard care. Those recommendations will also be handed in to them in the form of a standard care leaflet to take home. Participants will also be provided with a standard hypocaloric diet based on their needs for weight loss, aiming for a ≥ 5% reduction in body weight at the end of the 6-month intervention period."
