lumens it’s affordable and pocket device that measures your metabolism to help you achieve your health and fitness goals. Now, the iOS-compatible device that integrates with Apple Health has received an update that includes a built-in food log to help you understand how what you eat affects your metabolism in real time, decide what to eat and when, and more.
Whether you want to lose or maintain weight, build muscle, improve endurance, or optimize your athletic performance, understanding how your workouts and nutrition affect your metabolism is a huge advantage. And until Lumen launched in 2020, testing to see if you’re burning carbs or fat was a relatively expensive process done in clinics and hospitals with large devices.
lumens puts powerful metabolic analytics in your pocket with tight Apple Health integration to give you the personalized insights you need (in the moment) on how your body is using energy, what you need to eat to reach your specific goals like a macronutrient plan, and more .
Lumen Metabolic Food Log
But one missing piece within the Lumen iOS app was a food log. That meant I needed to use a different app like MyFitnessPal or Calory to keep track of Lumen’s personalized nutritional recommendations.
In an update today, the Lumen app now has a built-in food log (and can even import data from apps like MyFitness pal). Lumen shared the benefits of linking your food log with the metabolic analyzer app:
- Understand what foods are good for your body – how specific ingredients affect metabolism in real time
- Know when to eat and what – measure the impact of each breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack
- Focus on food quality, not calories – registration and monitoring of the nutritional value and macronutrients of each food (volumes of fats, carbohydrates and proteins)
- Track foods for your lifestyle – see how certain foods affect exercise, sleep and fasting habits
- Track any food in the grocery store – scan food labels and barcodes to record certain foods and ingredients
- Integrate with other platforms you use – import your data from registrars like MyFitnessPal
Lumen works as a subscription service. priced at $299/year ($249 for optional 6 months) with metabolic analyzer included. We did a full review of Lumen when it launched and found it to be impressive and worthwhile. We’ll have to do an updated review soon to dive into the new food record.
