How Muna thinks: cited answers from 10,600+ peer-reviewed studies
Most AI health chatbots fall into one of two traps. Either they're generic: vague wellness advice that could've come from any blog. Or they're confidently wrong, hallucinating specific dosages and brand names that don't exist.
AskMuna is built differently. Here's how.
Grounded in real evidence
Muna draws on a curated library of:
- 10,600+ peer-reviewed studies: systematic reviews and meta-analyses from PubMed, weighted toward 2018-2026
- Functional medicine textbooks: including the Institute for Functional Medicine handbook and Integrative & Functional Medicine Nutrition
- Clinical guidelines: NICE (UK), with selected ZOE and Rupa Health content for current research summaries
Every recommendation in a chat is grounded in this corpus, and you'll see [Source Name] citations inline so you know where the answer came from.
Specific, not generic
A typical "ask an AI" experience for "I'm bloated":
Bloating can have many causes! Consider eating slowly, reducing carbonation, and consulting your doctor.
A typical Muna response:
Bloating 30 minutes after meals points more toward hydrogen-dominant SIBO than IMO. The gold-standard workup is a lactulose breath test. Meanwhile, allicin (start 360mg twice daily) and oregano oil are evidence-supported botanicals while you investigate [Cochrane Review on SIBO 2024].
That's the difference between guessing and knowing.
UK-aware
When Muna recommends a supplement, she'll point you to a UK-stocked Amazon product with the right form (e.g., magnesium glycinate, not citrate; methylfolate, not folic acid). Brands and prices are real and verified.
What she remembers (Premium)
On the Premium plan, Muna keeps context across every conversation: your conditions, your active supplements, what you've tried, what worked, what didn't. So when you come back two months later asking why your sleep still isn't great, she remembers you started magnesium 8 weeks ago and can ask the right follow-ups.
What she still won't do
Muna is an AI. She can still misstate edge cases, and she can't see your full medical history. For anything serious, get a second opinion from your GP or a qualified practitioner.
