Why glucose is key to good health

At January, our mission is to increase the world’s “healthspan”—the number of years we remain in good health, free of chronic disease. Research continues to show that managing blood sugar is core to the cause, driven by its ability to regulate weight, cholesterol, inflammation, and so much more.

Now, for the first time, the January app harnesses powerful AI technology to help you better manage your glucose and build the habits that lead to a longer, healthier life.

January’s impact

Our cutting-edge research combines metabolic science, behavioral psychology, and world-class AI. After clinically proving that CGMs lead to weight loss, we successfully proved that AI can enable sustained behavioral change. Our peer-reviewed research validates what we’ve seen firsthand - that our users experience higher glucose control, weight loss, and more.
