Drop Sugar Habit is a mobile application developed by Finnish healthcare professionals.

Overweight and obesity are growing health challenges both in Finland and internationally. In Finland alone, over 50% of the population is overweight, and 1.2 million people have a BMI of 30 or higher, which is classified as obesity (Source: THL Terve Suomi study). Many people wish to be slimmer, as a survey by YLE found that 80% of Finns have tried dieting at some point (Source: https://yle.fi/a/74-20080331).

Research shows that overweight is caused by excess energy intake and unhealthy lifestyle habits. Excess energy often comes from so-called “fast sugars”, such as sweet drinks, candy, and other sugary treats. The consumption of sugary treats is strongly linked to sugar cravings, which are driven by blood sugar fluctuations (Source: https://www.terveyskirjasto.fi/dlk00042).

Healthcare professionals created a solution to this problem, which you can now download from the app store!

Our mission is to make blood sugar management understandable and simple.
