Over the last several years, the incidence of cardio-metabolic diseases in men has considerably increased, and the risk factors continue to be high. Issues such as loss of libido, fatigue, insomnia, receding hairlines, poor muscle mass, depression, repeated infections, and joint pains are commonly seen in young men.

A report by the World Health Organisation indicates that over 20% of India's population suffers from at least one chronic disease. This rapid rise in chronic diseases such as diabetes, thyroid, BP and obesity can be attributed to sedentary lifestyles, High-stress levels, unhealthy diets and poor nutrition. However, most chronic conditions are reversible through prevention, timely detection, and management. Bonatra was founded with the aim to help people with chronic diseases manage their condition using easy-to-use I0MT devices.
