THIS IS HEALTH TECH, POWERED BY YOU.
What is a biowearable? It’s health tech designed to help you better understand what’s happening in your body.
Our biowearables pair a biosensor with an app on your smartphone to give you a window into your health like never before.
Whether you’re a weekend warrior or living with diabetes, the insights you learn can help you make smart changes to your wellness routine.
Biowearables: Now that you know the name, see what they can do.
Biowearables go beyond fitness trackers and the skin’s surface.
“With biowearables, we could one day have a constant stream of invaluable data that could alert doctors to sudden changes — even trigger an alarm at the nurses' station if a value crossed a dangerous limit — potentially saving lives.”
Marc Taub, vice president of technical operations,
Abbott’s Diabetes Care business
“There is such a comfort in knowing you are safe. When I learned about my diabetes, I felt shackled, and now I have these freedoms. There is an overwhelming sense of joy when you are untied.”
Dawn Culver-Henkel, FreeStyle Libre 2 user
“By using a biowearable, you could gain the ability to see how your glucose is affected by what you eat and take action to help keep your glucose steady. If you’re consistently seeing your glucose spike, or increase rapidly and significantly after every meal, it’s time to make some changes to the foods that fuel you.”
Pamela Nisevich Bede, MS, RD, nutritionist at Lingo
“I feel like I am in control…. I knew my Libre was watching me.”
