PanGenomic Health
Your smart tech partner in natural health
Our Story
As the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded, we saw a dire need for accessible care, and effective, self-guided wellness solutions.
Anxiety and depression increased, access to practitioners plummeted, and an overwhelming percentage of the people struggling most were left without meaningful or substantial support. In a time of disconnection, technology was the obvious answer — so the team at PanGenomic set out to develop digital products and tools that would transform the wellness world.
Through self-guided programs, easy-to-use platforms, and resources informed by peer-reviewed research, we offer solutions that are effective, natural, personalized, and responsive to users’ desired health outcomes and wellness objectives.
Today, our product catalog includes our Nustasis AI Platform, MUJN Diagnostics, and the NARA and MindLeap consumer apps — all designed to complement conventional medicine, and simplify the path to better health.
OUR Mission
Our mission is to transform the healthcare space with accessible wellness solutions powered by science, and the latest innovations in tech.
Through our proprietary apps and platforms, we empower users to take control of their own wellbeing, and overcome long-standing barriers to mental and physical health.
We believe that conventional and holistic medicine can (and should) be complementary — and that the key to better long-term outcomes is a holistic, whole-body approach to healing and wellness.
OUR Principles
Accessibility
We are committed to inclusivity, ease of use, and eliminating barriers that prevent those in need from accessing quality care and healing.

Engagement
We offer engaging and responsive tools designed to help users stick to lifestyle and regimen changes, improving their chances of meeting their long-term goals.
Empowerment

Social Impact
As a public benefit company, Pangenomic is dedicated to helping improve individual health outcomes with smart-tech tools that leverage both nature and science — while maintaining a commitment to safety, efficacy, and ease of access.
We believe that mental health and physical wellbeing should not be a luxury, but a basic human right, and a major priority across all communities and demographics.
We also believe that conventional healthcare, while effective, has limitations that block individual access to complete care, effective solutions, and lasting positive outcomes.
We aim to complement and support conventional medicine with a whole-body approach that simplifies, legitimizes, and democratizes holistic health and natural wellness solutions.
Our platforms and products were designed to make that happen — by offering new resources to practitioners and empowering users everywhere to take the reins of their own healing process.
On the business side of things, we believe that ethical profit is possible, and that sustainable growth should not come at the expense of employees, consumers, or the environment.
Bearing all of this in mind, we are proud to call PanGenomic one of Canada’s first public benefit corporations.
