Understanding the impact of diet on health is challenging as it is difficult to easily and regularly quantify the interaction of foods within the digestive system. FoodMarble hopes to change that with its innovative device that detects and analyzes the composition of one’s breath to help individuals and their doctors understand and diagnose issues people have digesting food.

In the above video, Dr. James Brief, Chief Medical Officer of FoodMarble, explains how their simple technique of collecting data opens people’s eyes to the types of foods (e.g. apples) that might cause stomach pain.
