GBLike it I have been able to learn about the personal quirks of my metabolism. I discovered why Intermittent Fasting and CrossFit/Intense Workouts didn't work for me. My body was too stressed by it- so I was not losing weight. I use Lumen to keep myself from going too far... sort of an intense person by nature. 😆

GBWaste of money This device does absolutely nothing. It is not at all as advertised, does not come with personalized information (the information on the app is very standardized), and the measurements do not provide useful insight into anything that isn't already common sense. Complete waste of money. The company also does not allow returns and does not provide a phone number to speak to anyone regarding dissatisfaction. I believe this company is a scam.

GBPlease add high carb meals there are none available Love the app as it does encourage you to eat well. My only suggestion would be add food ideas for boost days for those of us who have higher carb needs. We paid to have food recommendations but I’ve had a couple days where it just tells me there are no recommendations based on my needs for the meal.

GB30 Pounds Down, 30 more to Go! I’ve been using the Lumen for a year now. I had been reading about the science for 3-years and was fascinated with the science behind CO2 readings rather than what a Glucose Monitor can do. My first 3-weeks into it, my readings went from burning a mix of fat/carbs, ALL carbs, to FAT BURN, and mostly fat. Why? Because I learned what foods worked for my body to get there. I discovered my body NEEDS carbohydrates to get INTO fat burn. Over the past year, I have released 30 pounds. I have now coupled my LUMEN with a GLP1 called Semiglutide (Ozempic, Rybelsus) Tirzepatide (Mounjaro). Nutrition Support at LUMEN has been fabulous in helping me keep my Macros where they need to be for the highest success! The App. Is incredible, menus to follow, the tracking, and support are incredible. Thank You LUMEN for the huge success!

SGhighly recommend I was apprehensive initially because some older users claim the Lumen experience to be time consuming and difficult. I took a leap of faith because I really believed in the science (I'm a medical doctor). My experience has been great. Lumen was so easy to use I did it easily from the first try. It is so quick to use that I do it multiple times a day just to micro manage my stress. It has been so consistent that my readings are almost always the same after repeated measurements, and even when I'm slightly out of breath. Customer service and resources are aplenty, and even I learnt some new things. I am getting it for family and also considering implementing in my practice. Only limiting factor now is the limited food database but I expect to be quite familiar with a rough estimate of my dietary values after a period of logging the macros.
