🩺 Living Longer: Kidney Health, Smart Bread & the New Longevity

Designing the future of health, one molecule (or loaf) at a time

Hi there đź‘‹ 

Whether you’re aiming for a longer life, managing a chronic condition, or simply trying to eat a little smarter, this issue brings you innovations with personal impact.

We explore re-engineered food that supports gut and metabolic health, targeted treatments for transplant patients, and promising advances in women's health through quantum simulation.

The HealthHack Newsletter is here to help you make sense of what's next - and what matters most.

Let’s get into it.

EDITOR’S CHOICE ✨ 

The Healthiest Ultra-Processed Bread You’ve Ever Eaten

British startup Modern Baker, the food-as-medicine company behind SUPERLOAF, is reimagining ultra-processed food (UPF) as a tool for health - not harm. Instead of removing ingredients, their nutrient-dense formulas enhance everyday staples like bread, cereals, and ready meals.

SUPERLOAF, now on shelves at major UK grocers, has reportedly shown measurable gut and blood sugar benefits.

Co-founder Melissa Sharp, whose cancer treatment journey inspired the mission, puts it plainly: “The real enemy isn’t processing - it’s nutrient poverty.”

Chronic Care, Reimagined

A New Shot at Kidney Transplant Health

Memo Therapeutics’ latest trial for potravitug, an antibody therapy for BK polyomavirus infection, shows strong early signs of success. For kidney transplant recipients, this could mean fewer rejections and better long-term outcomes. Most importantly, the treatment improved both viral loads and kidney tissue health - with no major side effects.

VISIONARY VOICES đź’¬ 

Rethinking Women's Health with Quantum Power

This week’s standout voice comes from Universal Quantum who has joined the Open Quantum Institute, where scientists, ethicists, and engineers are rethinking how to use next-gen tools - like quantum computing - for global health.

The focus? Endometriosis, a debilitating condition affecting millions of women, particularly those who have long been underserved by the medical system.

Quantum simulations may help uncover new, non-hormonal treatments faster and more precisely than current discovery methods allow. This collaboration is more than technical advancement - it represents a thoughtful re-centering of women’s health at the frontier of innovation.

AI in Action

Pharma Matchmaking, Automated

Metly is streamlining pharma’s most painful bottleneck: partnership discovery. Using AI agents to scan and match over 35,000 licensed products across 550 global licensors, it aims to cut months of manual work down to hours. By pinpointing high-fit manufacturing and licensing opportunities, it helps teams move from idea to execution faster.

Push-Button Protein Design

Latent Labs has launched Latent-X, a no-code platform that allows users to generate new protein binders directly in the browser. Using gen-AI, it can reportedly design potent cyclic peptides and mini-binders in seconds. In lab tests, Latent-X showed up to 100% hit rates on therapeutic targets, signaling a breakthrough in computational drug discovery.
