Learn how MyPhenomeTM test works and how it can accelerate your weight loss.
Leading physicians from Mayo Clinic, Drs. Andres Acosta and Michael Camilleri, studied nearly 1000 patients and found that obesity can be categorized as four different diseases requiring different treatments. We refer to these as obesity phenotypes: Hungry Brain, Hungry Gut, Emotional Hunger, and Slow Burn.1 Obesity phenotyping empowers providers to use precision medicine to individualize treatment, and was shown to double the amount of weight lost.

"For years, obesity care relied on observation, not precision. Dr. Andres Acosta and his team's research changed that, revealing distinct obesity subtypes defined by genetic, metabolic, and behavioral traits.
This led to MyPhenome® - the first clinical use of Phenomix's AI platform - to match patients with the treatments they're most likely to respond to, from GLP-1s to bariatric procedures.
The same platform keeps uncovering new insights, building the path to truly personalized, trait-based obesity care."

“Wait—I thought GLP-1s work for everyone? There’s something else?’ That’s a question I hear almost daily.
It’s incredibly rewarding to share the MyPhenome test with my patients. They appreciate knowing their treatment is informed by cutting-edge, data-driven insights—not trial and error.
I often tell them: if you had breast cancer, you wouldn’t want me guessing at the type or treatment. You’d expect a test to guide us. Your weight loss journey deserves that same level of precision and respect.”
Co-Owner and CEO, Next Level Care
“As a Mayo Clinic–trained physician, I’m committed to applying evidence-based medicine in my integrative health practice. Yet so often, clinical judgment is the only tool we have—especially in obesity care. That’s why the MyPhenome test has been a game-changer.
For the first time, we have a precision medicine tool that removes the guesswork. It helps me and my patients understand which weight loss medication is most likely to work and what lifestyle interventions will be most effective based on their unique biology.”
