According to Oshi Health's funding announcement, "Digestive disorders affect 1 in 4 Americans and have a high economic burden, driving $135 billion in annual costs – a collective impact greater than diabetes, heart disease and mental health." That's wild to think about considering the scale of diabetes, heart disease and mental health coverage in the news, though absolutely believable. GI issues have far reaching effects, and Oshi Health is using GI health innovation as a core tenet of "whole body" care. This makes sense - if "you are what you eat", then "what you can't" absolutely can have negative ramifications on your entire health. (June 2024)
