> I once started working on something similar, but the goal was to suggest a list of ingredients for me to buy for the week so that I had a good total nutritional values. I don't work on it anymore though.

Cronometer has a feature that does this – it checks to see where you aren't hitting your daily targets for macro/micronutrients and then suggests foods that would allow you to hit those targets. Quite nifty.

> The company is focused on a class of molecule known cyclodextrins, and have candidates capable of efficiently binding and sequestering 7-ketocholesterol. This form of oxidized cholesterol is of great importance to the progression of atherosclerosis, and possibly other age-related conditions as well.

The thing is cyclodextrins have been linked to causing deafness, in as little as a week. As per https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5676048/ and https://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/deaf-or-death-in-drug-trial...

Heart disease or hearing – tough trade-offs. Here’s to hoping that they’ve engineered a novel compound without any of the downsides.
