Kara Collier: How to Use Technology to Quantify Health & Improve Habits


Listen Later

Have you ever tried measuring your blood glucose?

There's never been a better time to use cutting edge technology to quantify and optimize your health.

But instead of jumping straight into invasive dystopian technology like brain implants (turning us into the borg), we can actually use tech as a tool to improve our habits.

It doesn't have to be overly complicated, and it's quickly becoming easier and cheaper to track heart rate variability, sleep quality, fitness, blood sugar, and much more.

And what's most important is how we use our data to modify our daily practices.

So joining us on the show today is Kara Collier, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Nutrition Support Clinician, and the Director of Nutrition at NutriSense where she's also a leading authority on the use of continuous glucose monitoring or CGM technology.

On this show with Kara Collier, we're chatting about:

  • How to use technology as a tool to quantify and optimize your health
  • The benefits of tracking blood sugar with a continuous glucose monitor (CGM)
  • Why you're stealing energy from the next day when you have that ice cream or extra booze late at night
  • Why drinking oat milk is almost as bad as sugar-laden soda once it hits your bloodstream
  • How stress impacts blood glucose levels (and what to do about it)
  • Why it's a good idea to test your blood glucose after eating manufactured keto products 
  • And tons more...
