How Nutrion™ works?


Nutrion™ measures breath acetone in a single breath, providing a non-invasive assessment of individual fat metabolism. The results are displayed

in the Alivion Core App as acetone concentration (ppm) and fat burn (g). For easy interpretation, each measurement is assigned a level from 1 to 5.
