METHODS: SureMediks, a digital lifestyle intervention platform using AI, was tested by 391 participants (58% women) with a broad range of BMI (20-78 kg/m2), with the aim of losing weight over 24 weeks in a multinational field trial. SureMediks consists of a mobile app, an Internet-connected scale, and a discipline of artificial intelligence called Expert system to provide individualized guidance and weight-loss management.
RESULTS: All participants lost body weight (average 14%, range 4-22%). Almost all (98.7%) participants lost at least 5% of body weight, 75% lost at least 10%, 43% at least 15%, and 9% at least 20%, suggesting that this AI-powered lifestyle intervention was also effective in reducing the burden of obesity co-morbidities. Weight loss was partially positively correlated with female sex, accountability circle size, and participation in challenges, while it was negatively correlated with sub-goal reassignment. The latter three variables are specific features of the SureMediks weight loss program.
CONCLUSIONS: An AI-assisted lifestyle intervention allowed people with different body sizes to lose 14% body weight on average, with 99% of them losing more than 5%, over 24 weeks. These results show that digital technologies and AI might provide a successful means to lose weight, before, during, and after pharmacological or surgical therapies.
