Have you guys heard about, read about, or do you have any personal experience with Lumen? It is a device that you blow into and it reports whether you are currently burning carbs (glucose) or fat.
The concept is to determine if you are metabolically flexible (burning both carbs & fat) as one's ability to burn fat makes it easier to lose fat.
In any case, I am somewhat skeptical about this device which is why I am posting about it here and wondering if anyone has benefited from its use (or similar device).
The device is sold on a subscription basis for 6, 12, and 18 month time frames at $249, $299, and $349. I do not own one nor am I affiliated in any way to this company. However, if it were possible to burn more fat by making different or Lumen suggest food choices this would seem to be potentially worth it …
There will be or may be already competitors to Lumen - I am interested in the process or anyone getting results from tracking the metabolism, so if you have a similar device that indicates whether carbs or fat is currently being burned please share that information as well …
