Herbalife Partners With Academics For AI Metabolism Model to Predict Responses to Real-Life Meals

Herbalife has partnered with Wageningen University & Research and Eindhoven University of Technology to develop an AI-powered Human Dietary Digital Twin, MetaboTwin, designed to predict individual metabolic responses to real-life meals and support personalised nutrition and disease prevention.
The nutrition giant Herbalife has partnered with academics from Wageningen University & Research (WUR), Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and industry cohorts to develop a Human Dietary Digital Twin — an AI model that aims to predict how individuals will respond to real-life meals.
The project, which will run until 2029, will study human subjects and how their bodies respond to consuming different protein sources within complex meals and at different times of the day.
These responses will then be combined with existing data to develop the Human Dietary Digital Twin — MetaboTwin — combining modelling and data-driven methods (AI), which will predict metabolic responses within the human body to different foods.
As part of the project, Herbalife will provide a range of products, including its Formula 1 meal replacement and fibre boosters, for consumption during the human trials.
Herbalife’s scientists will also work closely throughout the project with both academic institutions, WUR and TU/e and consortium members Thai Union, Norilia, Ani.AI, Nuritas and Genos on the development of MetaboTwin.
Metabolic responses are how the body

USANA Executive Chairman and CEO Kevin Guest on Self-Renewal Day: Strategic Growth With Six Steps

Salt Lake City, Utah – As organizations face rapid market disruption and evolving leadership demands, Self-Renewal Day (February 2nd) is a pivotal time of year for business leaders to recalibrate strategies and personal development.

“Growth does not happen by accident; it happens by choice,”

said  Kevin Guest, Executive Chairman & CEO at USANA Health Sciences (NYSE: USNA).

“Self-Renewal Day is designed to prompt people to evaluate their lives, challenge complacency, and take deliberate steps toward personal and professional renewal.”

This annual observance is a critical reminder that sustained corporate success and operational advancement begin with the individual leader’s commitment to breaking free from the status quo.

“Comfort is seductive,”

said Guest, who is also the author of the bestseller, All the Right Reasons: 12 Principles for Living a Life in Harmony.

“But nothing meaningful grows there.”

His message is clear. Renewal requires movement. It requires courage. It requires choosing long-term fulfillment over short-term ease.
One of the most powerful examples Guest shares is his decision to walk away from a lifelong dream of becoming a full-time rock musician. Music was his passion. He had talent. He had momentum. But he felt a deeper pull toward leadership, service, and building something that would impact lives at scale.

“That choice was not easy.
