Today’s guest is Josh Clemente. Josh is the co-founder of Levels, which is the first consumer program that lets an individual know how food and lifestyle choices are directly affecting blood sugar and metabolic health, in real-time. They pair glucose monitoring with intelligent software to support healthy blood sugar levels. Some early users have included professional athletes, biohackers, the weight loss community and other health enthusiasts.
This chat serves as a great follow-up to the convo I had with Cyrus Khambatta on the pod not too long ago where we dove deep into the topics of insulin resistance and diabetes. I definitely invite you to check that episode out if you missed it.
The dialogue today with Josh certainly will touch on these subjects, but we spend quite a bit of time chatting about the incredible technology he has helped to create and the data that has come from it.
Josh is also a mechanical engineer and CrossFit-L2 trainer. At SpaceX, he led a team to develop life support systems that in May of 2020 began sustaining astronauts on trips to and from the International Space Station aboard Crew Dragon: the first human-rated commercial spacecraft in history.
In our conversation, Josh walks you through his “adversity advantage” story and share why he decided to leave working for SpaceX after experiencing a health scare of his own that led him down a path of self-discovery that changed his life and inspired him to co-found Levels. Josh shares the benefits of using a continuous glucose monitor and how it can help shift the way we treat metabolic health issues. We talk about how certain foods affect insulin and how some widely promoted health foods can actually negatively impact blood sugar levels. Josh talks about how exercise impacts your metabolic health and flexibility and how certain types of exercise impact blood glucose levels. Our discussion also dovetails into sleep and stress and how they all play into this equation and what you can do to use them to your advantage. Levels is currently in “beta” and not available to the public.
