HealtheTech

HealtheTech was a medical technology company that specialized in developing and marketing handheld devices for measuring resting metabolic rate (RMR). Its flagship products, the BodyGem and BioGem, utilized indirect calorimetry to provide personalized nutritional and fitness assessments by measuring oxygen consumption. The company's technology was designed to help healthcare professionals and consumers manage weight and optimize health through precise caloric measurement rather than estimation. HealtheTech was a pioneer in the consumerization of metabolic testing before its assets were acquired by Microlife Corporation in 2006.
