In this episode, Fergus is joined by Josh Clemente, former SpaceX engineer, to founder of Levels Health.

Josh spent the first half of his career engineering systems at SpaceX and Hyperloop, two of Elon Musk’s ultra-high-performing companies, where he helped to create the life support systems that keep astronauts alive and functioning. During this time, Josh was struggling with inexplicable bouts of fatigue and volatile spikes and crashes in energy whilst training as a competitive CrossFitter. On a whim, Josh began experimenting with glucose monitoring, the data from which ultimately led to a complete reinvention of his lifestyle. 

Through this experience, Josh conceived of Levels, a software-enabled health company that leverages real-time data from biosensors, like Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs), and lifestyle data from apps like Apple Health to learn how food, stress,  sleep and exercise impact your metabolic health. 

Expect to learn what Elon Musk's working culture is REALLY like.

Expect to reflect upon how you respond to your nutrition.
