Thanks to the advancements made in technology, we are finding new, better, and more efficient ways of tracking our health, such as through fitness trackers and wearable sensors. Even some earphones come with features that can track certain biometrics. Now some of you might recall back in 2018 a device called the Lumen.
This is a breathalyzer of sorts that can track your metabolism throughout the day just by breathing into it. If this sounded like something you might be interested in, you’ll be pleased to learn that the Lumen will begin shipping out this summer. In case you’re learning about this for the first time, the Lumen has been designed to help people keep track of their health goals by measuring their metabolism through their breath.
The idea is that as you go through the day and breathe into the device, it can analyze your breath and through an accompanying app, will tell you how you’re doing and if you need to make any changes. The company claims that their research has found that people who took part in their test lost weight while using the device.
Now we’re not sure how accurate Lumen is at reading and analyzing your body’s metabolism. However it does share some concepts of successful weight loss programs, which usually involves users being more mindful of the food they eat and the activities they do. The Lumen is priced at $300 but is currently 16% off as a pre-order special.
