What if AI could tell you which foods will spike your blood sugar?

from #WeGotGoals by aSweatLife · host aSweatLife

Have you ever seen a small, round sensor on the back of someone’s arm? For a long time, those continuous glucose monitors were only used for monitoring the blood glucose of those with Diabetes. My grandfather had diabetes and he would check his blood glucose twice a day using a finger prick. I remember distinctly the sound of the little device - it was like a stapler - I also remember the curse words that would follow.So, I assumed as I was putting the Freestyle Libre on the back of my arm that it would be as painful as the finger pricks. It was not. And for two weeks, I wore it and dutifully trained the January.ai App to help me understand and control my blood glucose.It created something called a "digital twin" which learned which behaviors led to blood sugar spikes and valleys. If creating a digital twin of yourself sounds scary, and like the robots are coming. Well, the robots are coming anyway, so, we might as well team up with them to make our lives better.Joining me today is Noosheen Hashemi, CEO and Founder of January.ai, which uses AI to help manage your glucose and predict the impact of key behaviors on our body’s unique metabolism. Resources:Use code "SWEAT25" for 25% off January.ai Follow January on Instagram Abbott will be releasing more sensors Eliud Kipchoge on using the Abbott sensor for marathon trainingExercise and blood glucose (american diabetes association)Noosheen’s daughter on Instagram  How blood glucose testing works with testing strips
