Healthcare startup 'Algocare' announced on the 28th that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Korean Society of Nutritional Supplement Prescription to promote national nutritional health and improve the healthcare service market.


The signing ceremony was attended by Algocare CEO Ji-won Jeong, Algocare Labs leads Kwang-tae Kim and Gap-sung Kim, President of the Korean Society of Nutritional Supplement Prescription, Director Seong-deok Choi, and Center Director Jong-hyuk Kim.


The Korean Society of Nutritional Supplement Prescription is a medical professional society that distributes research and academic materials on proper nutritional supplement intake methods and conducts related lectures. Despite growing interest in supplements and the increasing variety of supplement types, it aims to raise awareness about the stagnant intake methods and interactions with health conditions.


Through this agreement, Algocare will prepare evidence-based materials to communicate the risks of supplement misuse. It also plans to work towards establishing an ideal supplement intake culture to promote national nutritional health.


Algocare and the Korean Society of Nutritional Supplement Prescription agreed to collaborate on ▲sharing the latest academic knowledge on nutritional components and mechanisms of action ▲discovering new research and development topics ▲providing consultation and review of nutritional management solutions within both companies' services.


CEO Jeong said, "We will do our best to raise awareness so that individuals can take supplements appropriately according to their own health conditions."



Founded in 2019, Algocare developed a real-time personalized nutrition management solution based on artificial intelligence and Internet of Things (IoT) nutrition management appliances. On the 20th, it officially launched 'Algocare at Work,' a nutrition management service for companies, enabling employers to provide customized nutrition management as a welfare benefit to their employees.
