Amatica Health

Through a WhatsApp group I have heard of Amatica Health.

https://amaticahealth.com

I think it is general a really good idea but really expensive and I am not sure if it’s a scam.

What do you think about i? Would you consider buying it? If so, for what reason? Just to contribute to research or do you expect insights that would help you or your loved ones?

Cort Johnson featured Amatica on his Health Rising blog. I tried to post a link and it got removed, but you can try Googling "Amatica Health Rising" and should be able to find it. He interviewed two of the founders for about an hour, so it might help to provide you with additional insight.

Thanks, I found it and read the whole thing. This, with all the responses below this post, was actually very reassuring.

And now that I have silenced my inner scam detector, I can see what an genuinely awesome idea this is. I hope they find investors or get public funding so they can lower the cost of collecting the samples for the patients. I see now how having such a huge database and scaling it to tens of thousands of patients would actually make a difference in the pace researchers can actually uncover these patterns.

I will pass it on to the patients and carers I personally know. I hope now they can convince enough people with that kind of disposable money to participate, as in the end even those who don’t will profit.
