I woke up to a rather cold SF morning to serendipitous news from Bloomberg that Apple had made a major breakthrough in no-prick glucose monitoring. Its projected that this will be in the next Apple Watch version and will provide continuous glucose or sugar monitoring.
This news coincided that just about a week ago I learnt about elevated sugar myself. Since then I have been monitoring with the classic prick and test at various times a day.
"What measures matter" - is certainly everlasting wisdom. It's fascinating how different foods , drinks impact the sugar level in the body. And what elevated sugar can do to your system.
Measurement itself provides an instant realization on what needs to change. (case in point the 10000 steps phenomenon) . Watching effects of 'junk' food , drinks like coke and alcohol almost makes it impossible to overeat or binge upon.
While there are many continuous glucose monitoring systems - they are still quite medical in nature. They require a special effort only suitable for patients or fitness enthusiasts.
If this comes to no-prick solution on a watch by Apple, it would create a revolution in health awareness. No longer could you carelessly have four glasses of wine, or eat regularly at McDonalds , drink a full bottle of coke while your watch prompts you that your sugar is spiking to 300 !
(Despite negligent advice from billionaires on promoting these brands! )
This is another impact of AI and great progress for the world. This is likely to impact Alcohol and junk food stocks in the mid term and boost global standard of living! (Hopefully apple will opensource this technology)
So soon after chatGPT, its amazing how AI is coming to Human rescue!
