ŌURA has just announced a partnership with Dexcom that will allow the Oura Ring to help monitor your blood sugar.
Blood sugar monitoring is a key health metric—it’s thought Apple has been trying to find a way to build it into the Apple Watch for years. Now, the Finnish maker of the Oura Ring has announced a partnership with U.S. company Dexcom , so that the smart ring can give users deeper insights about blood sugar levels.This is not through clever new sensors in the Oura Ring , which has just been released in its Generation 4 model in the last few weeks, promising improved levels of accuracy.
It means that the health insights from glucose data picked up by Dexcom can be combined with the health data collected by the Oura Ring. The ring monitors vital signs, sleep, stress, activity and heart health. Connecting the dots between the two sets of data could reveal the link, on an individualized basis, between activity, food and blood sugar. In turn, this could lead to users taking more informed decisions about nutrition. As Tom Hale, ŌURA’s CEO, puts it, “Ninety-seven percent of Oura Members have expressed interest in understanding how the food they eat impacts their health.
