Halo Life Science

Halo Life Science is an Austin-based biotechnology and food science company founded in 2015 that focuses on addressing metabolic dysfunction and chronic conditions like the global diabesity epidemic. The company leverages its proprietary platform technology, IONx AI, to discover and optimize molecules by restoring metabolic function and unlocking the potential of insoluble compounds. A key output of this research is Naturalin, a multifunctional bioactive ingredient designed for fortification in foods, supplements, and medical foods. By increasing the production of beneficial metabolites like urolithins, the company aims to improve overall health outcomes, combat inflammation, and promote longevity through science-backed nutrition.

This work is critical for addressing the significant public health impact of obesity and metabolic disease, which affect billions worldwide. Halo seeks to provide better-for-you alternatives to highly processed, nutrient-poor food products, thereby democratizing health through accessible, nature-derived ingredients. The company integrates expertise from leaders in medicine, public health, and functional medicine to drive its mission. Its research has resulted in multiple patents, and the firm actively engages in the development of both therapeutics and enriched consumer products to improve the quality of life for diverse populations.
