Lumen measures metabolism, creates personal nutrition plan with a single breath
"Lumen — an Israel-based digital health and wellness company — has officially launched its new device to help with weight management out of beta. With a single breath into the device, users are provided with a personalized nutrition plan to help lose weight and achieve fitness goals."
"The Lumen uses Respiratory Exchange Ratio, which is the preferred method for determining metabolic fuel. By taking a single breath, the Lumen measures the carbon dioxide production and oxygen uptake of a user’s breath in order to calculate how much energy is being burned from carbohydrates or fat."
This seems like it would be good to have if it can accurately measure your true metabolism and carbon dioxide levels. Anyone else aware of similar devices for measuring CO2 levels?
It's currently on indigogo for 199 but won't be shipped until Feb 2019.
Not sure if this is something worth having or not but it certainly peaked my interest.
