About Us
The “Why” behind our mission:
Inflammetrix was founded by three students brought together by a shared goal: making inflammation-aware nutrition clearer, more accessible, and grounded in evidence.
Our Story
The motivation behind Inflametrix came from lived experience. For Nimishii, the motivation was deeply personal. Living with inflammatory bowel disease, she experienced firsthand the daily uncertainty of navigating food choices without clear tools to understand how different foods could influence inflammation. Tracking ingredients, symptoms, and nutritional information revealed how fragmented the available information was, and highlighted the need for a more comprehensive and accessible solution.
For Ishani, the urgency came through service. While working with the nonprofit Beyond Blindness, she observed exhausted parents and caregivers carefully monitoring every food their children consumed, knowing that inflammation could worsen fatigue and discomfort in already vulnerable children. Despite their diligence, many lacked access to clear, evidence-based guidance to help them make confident dietary decisions.
Together, these experiences shaped the vision for InflametriX: a platform that helps individuals understand the inflammatory impact of what they eat.
Pulin brought the technical expertise to turn this vision into a functional platform. Drawing on his background in technology and product development, he led the development of the app’s technical architecture, helping design the scoring system that connects nutritional data to inflammation metrics and building the infrastructure that allows users to easily analyze foods and receive actionable insights.
Working collaboratively, the team combined lived experience, community insight, and technical innovation to build InflametriX—a tool designed to make inflammation-informed nutrition more accessible for everyone.
