Today (June 18), Ultrahuman announced what's next for its health platform, and it's all about redefining what metabolic health truly means for users.
In a press release, Ultrahuman shared insights about M2 Live: a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) from Abbott's Lingo. This integration brings Abbott's over-the-counter monitor to more people through M2 Live in the U.S. The subscription for this begins at $99 per month, and consumers won't need a prescription either. CGM isn't anything new for Ultrahuman's platform; however, where M2 Live leads us is reportedly set to "become one of the most affordable wearable metabolic health platforms in the U.S."
M2 Live will stream your insights directly to the Ultrahuman app's metabolic health engine. This will include your sleep, stress, activity, and recovery to help paint the picture of how your body regulates its glucose. Ultrahuman is combining its health markers and blood biomarkers to help users make sense of why their glucose might spike.
What's more, data from Abbott's Lingo is said to put a neat bow on the whole situation for users. This data will bring a storied history of five years of research, health institution partnerships, and millions of logged meals.
Behind the scenes, Ultrahuman says its AI assistant, Jade, will use its biointelligence to connect your changing glucose patterns (if there are any) with your logged sleep, HRV, and more from your smart ring. Your metabolic score, which ranges from 0-100, reflects your glucose regulation. Since food can impact this, the app will offer a "Food Score."
It's through this that Ultrahuman says it can show users how certain foods they've eaten impact their glucose. The "Fueling Score" is more focused on your fitness/workouts, showing how your levels might impact your activity.
While the M2 Live announcement is today (June 18), the post states that the feature will officially launch "in the coming weeks" in the U.S. on Ultrahuman.com. A singular Lingo biosensor can be purchased for $129 (and the monthly subscription is $99). Users should be aware that these sensors can only be worn for up to 14 days. Lingo offers more details about its full safety instructions for its sensors and wearers.

Something like this would probably catch the eyes of those who really need it, and absolutely must take this type of management seriously. From my POV, I think this could really help people who have to take care of their glucose more seriously than others. I've got family who need to pay attention to this type of thing. They have their own management styles, of course, as this has been going on for years. Either way, glucose spikes can be dangerous, and it looks like Ultrahuman wants to try and help.
