Nu Skin’s Prysm iO brings nutritional biomarker tracking into a compact wellness device, using a fingertip scan to measure carotenoid levels in less than 15 seconds. Its Spectral Rai Technology captures more than 70,000 hyperspectral absorption measurements per scan, which an AI-powered algorithm converts into a personalized Prysm Score. Users can track changes over time and receive feedback related to diet, fitness, lifestyle, and supplementation without requiring traditional laboratory testing.
The platform gives Nu Skin a way to connect measurable wellness data with its existing supplement portfolio. By allowing consumers to repeatedly track carotenoid levels, Prysm iO can encourage ongoing engagement with the company’s wellness ecosystem and potentially support supplement purchases. Its phased rollout through Nu Skin brand representatives also gives affiliates a technology-driven tool for customer acquisition and product education before the broader consumer launch, expanding the company’s presence in personalized, data-driven wellness.
