FAQ

When your mitochondria use carbs as fuel, they release more CO₂ into your blood, and when they burn fat, they release less CO₂. Lumen analyzes the CO₂% in your breath and determines if you are using mostly fat or carbs for fuel based on the CO₂ concentration. 

Lumen’s technology is validated by multiple peer-reviewed scientific studies and is proven to measure metabolism as accurately as the gold-standard metabolic cart. Read the peer-reviewed paper.

Metabolic flexibility refers to how efficiently your mitochondria switch from burning carbs or fats for fuel, depending on their availability and your body’s needs. Being metabolically flexible can be critical for disease prevention and helps with managing weight, improved insulin sensitivity, higher energy levels, better sleep, and even longevity.
