Even though I’m a skeptic I love health tech. I wear a wearable, I play with red light therapy gadgets and I monitor my bloods more regularly than a lot of my peers. Rather than being overwhelmed with the data, I thrive in it, and I’m able to reasonably weigh up the information from all these inputs because of my experience of being a medical doctor for over 15 years.
But with so much health tech interest, the landscape has become confusing and it can be hard to separate health from hype.
So we’re chatting to Lara Lewington today who’s covered some of the world’s greatest innovations, presenting the BBC’s flagship technology show, Click and many more. She’s explored Artificial Intelligence in health, the use of home hormone testing and whether there are any devices that can actually help us meditate better.
This is a super fun episode where we discuss what tech is available today that can help us eat, sleep and exercise better as well as stress less and prevent disease. I learnt both about the world of breath testing to guide our food choices, an app to help you with jet lag, as well as the potential for intelligent and personalised cancer screening.
Hacking Humanity dives into this and a lot more, which is available in all good bookstores.
Some of the products discussed include: Whoop Oura Omed Dexcom and Abbot CGMs Timeshifter App Eli Health BrainPatch AI Grail Testing Truecheck Ezra
