HLB Life Care, a subsidiary of HLB Global (003580), has launched an interactive program at the ‘2026 Korea Running Expo’ that bridges the gap between high-performance running and systematic blood glucose management. By introducing its continuous glucose monitor (CGM), “Picoling,” and proposing personalized exercise strategies, the company is actively expanding its consumer reach into the burgeoning sports and wellness industry.

HLB Life Care announced on the 30th that it is operating an interactive booth at the expo, which is being held through the 31st at the Seoul Trade Exhibition & Convention Center (SETEC) in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The event is hosted by Runnable, the organizer of the JTBC Seoul Marathon.

A key feature of the booth is the proprietary “Run-BTI” test. Developed using data on the correlation between exercise and blood glucose levels researched by Dr. Kim Jung-gyu of Seocho Endo Clinic, the test is designed to help participants easily grasp the complex relationship between physical activity and metabolic health.

Modeled after personality assessments like MBTI, Run-BTI requires participants to answer 10 questions to determine their specific running profile—such as "fasting-run vulnerable," "slow digestion," or "energy-depletion prone"—among eight predefined categories. Based on the results, the system recommends optimal meal timing and energy supply strategies tailored to the individual’s physiological profile.

The program visualizes blood glucose fluctuations before, during, and after a run as a “fuel gauge for the body,” alerting participants to hypoglycemia risks and the appropriate timing for energy intake. This guidance is intended to help users form healthier exercise habits by emphasizing the critical role of glucose management.
