Both free and paid members of Noom can now conduct a ten-second body scan with their smartphone camera and receive, within minutes, a personalized health report that includes a 3D model representing the person today and a “Future Me” version that predicts body shape at his or her goal weight. In addition to making the feature available for free, Noom extended its Personalized Health Report by adding Noom Body Age, a metric predicting how an individual’s metabolic health compares to others, based on a large U.S. population data set. In addition to Noom Body Age, the scan and report provides important health metrics, such as body fat percentage, lean mass, waist-to-hip ratio, and fat mass, among others.

“Noom’s mission is to empower everyone, everywhere to live better longer,” said Geoff Cook, Chief Executive Officer of Noom. “We don’t aim to help only those who pay to subscribe but ‘everyone, everywhere.’ I’m proud of our extraordinary team for redefining how people measure and understand their health so they can make decisions to live better longer.”

Noom’s AI Body Scan provides an effective tool for improving long-term health, as body composition significantly impacts heart health, metabolism, and physical resilience. Noom’s solution goes beyond traditional measurements like weight and BMI to analyze metrics such as lean mass and body fat percentage. This offers a more detailed and meaningful picture of overall health. AI Body Scan is specifically designed to address the muscle loss that often accompanies w********** by adding body composition tracking to Noom’s program without the need for expensive hardware. Preserving muscle helps prevent sarcopenic obesity, a serious condition characterized by excess fat and diminished muscle mass, which can lead to increased health risks and reduced quality of life.

In addition to AI Body Scan, all Noom members can now access their Noom Body Age, a new, proprietary metric that provides a personalized comparison of one’s metabolic health and can be used to track improvements over time. Noom Body Age is calibrated on a large population of U.S. adults. Users receive a personalized health report based on a 10-second scan with their smartphone.

The health report contains several categories:

• Noom Body Age & Future Me Body Age vs chronological age
• Body Fat Percentage, Lean Mass, and Fat Mass
• Basal Metabolic Rate
• Body Measurements

Current age is based on the person’s birth date, Noom Body Age is calculated using biological and health data, and Future Me Body Age is projected based on the client’s desired body composition improvements based on their w********** goal with Noom.

“Noom Body Age can provide a useful view into how you compare with others your age. There is evidence linking metabolic age, which Noom Body Age is based on, with the risk of developing metabolic syndrome and machine learning is being used with metabolic markers to predict health span and lifespan,” continued Cook. “We’re excited to bring new ways for people to engage with their health comprehensively and offer actionable steps toward becoming the best version of yourself.”

An effective way to improve Noom Body Age for most people is through w********** while maintaining or increasing muscle mass, a process that Noom’s paid offerings support with features such as Muscle Defense™ and GLP-1 Companion programs. Noom members can use these tools after they receive their personalized health report to further enhance their health journey.
