Exploring the Zoe App Program the Pros and Cons
Exploring the Zoe App Program – the pros and cons In the era of digital health, the ZOE App Program, co-founded by Tim Spector, has emerged as a prominent player in personalized nutrition. With nearly cult-like status among its 130,000 subscribers, this nutrition service offers a tailored approach to optimizing health through its innovative app-based platform. In this comprehensive review Abby Olu-Sholanke one of our specialist Associate Dietitians, delves into the intricacies of the ZOE Programme, its product offerings, effectiveness, pros and cons, and compare it with the services provided by specialist dietitians. What exactly is Zoe? Zoe analyses your blood and faecal samples to provide insights about your gut microbiome, such as the diversity of gut and bowel bacteria and your ability to digest fats and sugars. Zoe App sounds interesting – what Next? The ZOE membership: There are three membership tiers, which automatically renew unless you request a cancellation. You have to buy the test and the monthly membership as a package they are not available to purchase seperately. The Membership categories are: £24.99 per month for a 12-month membership, plus £299.99 for testing. Membership paid in one payment of £299.88, billed when you can see your ZOE Scores in the app = £599 £39.99 per month for a four-month membership, plus £299.99 for testing. Membership paid in one payment of £159.96, billed when you can see your ZOE Scores in the app =£439 £59.99 per month for a rolling monthly membership, plus £299.99 for testing = £899. What’s in the Zoe App Kit? The ZOE test kit: Gut health kit: A kit to collect a stool sample at home, to send off for analysis. The stool is examined to see the diversity of the gut microbiome – essentially the good and not so good microbes living in the stools. This is linked with health issues such as digestive system, immune response and mental health. Blood fat test: A small sample of blood collected via finger prick is sent for blood fat analysis. This measures how quickly fat is cleared from the blood after a meal. This is a risk factor indicator of developing heart disease and chronic inflammation. Blood sugar sensor: A round yellow disk that the user sticks to their arm and wears for 14 days. There is a tiny needle that measures the glucose from the fluid beneath the skin. This allows the app to gain real-time insights of how blood sugar levels fluctuate, per food eaten. Breakfast and lunch cookies to be consumed on a specific test day – these test out the blood sugar and blood fat results, as well as measuring the speed of users’ digestion and gastric emptying. (the diagram below illustrates the process and used from the zoe website) Zoe Cookies?? So what are these cookies?? As we can see from the Zoe kit content, cookies are consumed…. According to the information on their website, the test cookies were specifically designed by scientists to enable users to test their biological responses. The purpose of the cookies is to challenge the metabolism with high doses of fat and sugar over 6 hours. To be able to package the necessary amounts of nutrients in the challenge in a standardised way, they used cookies. Breakfast Test Cookie Ingredients: White chocolate chips (cocoa butter, cane sugar, tapioca starch, rice syrup solids, rice maltodextrin, organic vanilla and salt) Flour blend (brown rice flour, sweet rice flour, tapioca starch, cornstarch, potato starch, stabiliser (xanthan gum)) Palm oil Brown sugar Chickpea flour Tapioca starch Tapioca syrup Less than 2% of: water, vanilla bean extractives, salt Lunch Test Cookie Ingredients: Flour blend (brown rice flour, sweet rice flour, tapioca starch, cornstarch, potato starch, stabiliser (xanthan gum)) Brown sugar Chickpea flour Tapioca starch Less than 2% of: water tapioca syrup vanilla bean extractives salt Colour: FD&C Blue #1 (Brilliant Blue FCF) Raising agent: Baking powder (sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium bicarbonate, cornstarch, monocalcium phosphate)) Allergens in Zoe cookies -free from Gluten Milk Egg Fish and shellfish Peanut and tree nut Soy Wheat Made in a facility handles the following : not suitable Tree Nuts Peanuts Wheat Eggs Zoe App Diet Test Day When it comes to eating the cookies on test day, testers need to fast the morning of the test – that means nothing to eat or drink, except water, black tea or coffee. The specific breakfast cookies need to be eaten within 15 minutes, and then a four hour fast follows, before consuming the lunch cookies. This can have implications for people who are on medications or diabetic. Effectiveness According to reviews on the ZOE website, users said they feel the changes in their energy levels after around 4 weeks. A statistic on the website states 84% of users feel healthier after 12 weeks. Another article in Forbes, says 70 percent of ZOE members report having more energy. Good Food website states that there is so much information on the ZOE app as well as useful tricks to optimise what you eat, that you’re bound to gain tips that you can stick to in the long term. Interestingly when you look at the stats for changing your diet to healthier choices this outcome is not unique to ZOE diet and achievable with guidance from a Dietitian. The Pros and Cons of ZOE app Pros ZOE is based on advice around monitoring blood sugar, blood fat and gut health. Provides helpful tips on minimising bad foods and useful tricks you can stick to long term. Contains a kit that has a blood sugar monitor, blood fat test, stool sample test and some food to test your gut transit time in the comfort of your home. The programme prides itself on helping users make healthy food choices and knowing how certain foods can impact their blood sugars and gut health. The ZOE app produces a score from 0-100, based on food choices. The program offers several articles and information of healthy eating It is a novel way of testing
