Abbott Lingo develops sensors for ketones and lactate

Abbott's consumer bioinformatics business, Lingo, has announced its innovative developments in the field of future ketone and lactate sensors.

Here's What We Know

Abbott's Senior Vice President, shared the details of these developments in an interview for the PULSE by Wareable podcast. He said that after the successful launch of the glucose tracking service, the company is expanding its line of products aimed at improving health.

The new ketone and lactate sensors open up a wide range of options for users to monitor their health. Tracking ketosis, a metabolic state where the body uses fat as its main source of fuel, will help those who are following low-carb diets or seeking to achieve certain fitness goals.

Additionally, lactate tracking will be useful for athletes who want to optimise their training and achieve better results.

The integration of the new sensors into the existing Lingo app will be another step in making these technologies available to all categories of users.
