Kinda cool! I hope this really leads to lower costs in health care.

Very interesting Justiina ! I had a look at their website and I love their whole ethos and mission. Let's hope they don't sell out to a large pharma company and this all gets watered down into PR speak. This type of thinking is a bright spark in a mad world and it's good to see they are being noticed and encouraged by the UN. My estimation of the UN has gone up. Go Finland indeed!!

I hope it triggers healthy competition and forces other companies to come up with innovative solutions instead of just collecting money.

Nightingale has worked for over 10 years and published a lot of studies and done a lot of work to develop this test method so I hope they appreciate their "baby" enough to sell it.

There is another company I have waited for to break through, but haven't heard these tests would be available abroad, which is a shame. gastropanel.com

No tests abroad is a great shame Justiina but I'm really pleased for you and your countryfolk. I would imagine that such an enterprise would be clubbed over the head by a gang of Pharma dudes if it threatened our shores,,,

Well I just found out they have developed a speed test that will be available in Europe soon.

So hopefully it will be available for most with reasonable price. One can stop guessing whether they have low stomach acids or not, and can possibly avoid unnecessary endoscopy.

I have just given them a bit more advertising Justiina on fb. This would be so much more painless to patients and to NHS not having to pay so much (probably).
