It's interesting to see how the wellness industry is transforming. Startups are coming with innovative ideas to transform people's lives and promote healthy living for the mind and body.

"Vieroots sees a world where people live long, healthy, and fulfilling lives by taking charge of their own bodies and minds. They offer a happy synergy between modern sciences, technology, and age-old wellness concepts thereby bringing forth innovations long-awaited in the wellness industry. Their key brand element is the continuum which depicts the regeneration and regression of life. I am positive that my association with the brand will boost its prospects," said Shetty.

Epigenetic lifestyle modification is a three-step method that includes Viegenome test (a genetic predisposition test that analysis one's test on 200 health parameters), Vieroots app - Epilimo, and a detailed personalised lifestyle modification plan.
