AI-powered HealthTech platform that transforms medical reports into understandable health insights and culturally adapted nutrition recommendations for African communities. # NutriSanté Africa > **An AI-powered platform that transforms complex medical reports into understandable health insights and culturally adapted nutrition recommendations.** --- ## 1. Problem Statement Millions of African patients receive medical reports that are difficult to understand due to medical jargon and complex terminology. A blood test result might list *hemoglobin*, *LDL cholesterol*, or *HbA1c* with reference ranges — but without medical training, most people cannot tell what is normal, what needs attention, or what to do next. This information gap has real consequences: - Patients leave clinics with papers they cannot interpret - Generic health advice online rarely reflects local food availability - Preventive nutrition decisions are harder when medical data feels inaccessible **NutriSanté Africa** was built to close that gap — not by replacing doctors, but by helping people *understand* what their reports mean and how everyday food choices in their own country can support their health. --- ## 2.

In practice, a user can: 1. **Upload a PDF** or paste a blood test report 2. **Select their country** (Togo, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Cameroon, Morocco) 3. **Receive** a plain-language health summary, visual test cards, per-abnormality explanations, and local food recommendations No account required. No database. The entire experience runs in the browser. --- ## 3. Why Africa? This is not another generic health app with Western diet advice.
