We've funded several startups doing components of that. It's hard to do in the general case.
Essentially, every startup is a user-acquisition startup in its own domain, and it's hard to beat the good ones at their specialty.

Not all startups in health segment have do its own health conscious user recruiting. There is a lot of overlap between products and I am sure there is some market for a generic user recruitment.

Without them thinking that your product stands out changes are pretty low that they are going to talk with somebody else about it.
