hey guys welcome back to my channel hope you all are well and hope you all are doing great.
um today i’m going to review the lumen products but first off if this is your first time checking out my channel.
hi welcome my name is azima and i’m a mom of two sharing videos centered around motherhood lifestyle fashion reviews hauls and so much more. so yeah if that is the kind of content you love watching do stick around and i’m sure you’ll find something that you love.
so yeah i’m going to jump right into the review of the lumen device.
so i had this exciting um package sent to me from lumen and i thought i should give them a review.
and so yeah basically lumen is a metabolic measurement device and it comes in this very cute black box just like this. and it also has a few information on the back that just you know tells you about what is inside the box .
so in the box you will have your lumen device your charging dock your travel case a usb c cable and a user guide the product is compatible with ios and android devices this is my lumen device.
and it’s so handy i love the travel case
that it comes with
because i can just talk my lumen in here
and take it out and about with me and
this is the lumen device
itself so all i need to do is
to pair this product with by phone
and um yeah this is the app of the
the lumen app so all i did was to
download the app
and then sync your device with the app
and that is what i did and um yeah i
always use this every day
and so basically what you do with this
device is that you will breathe into it
and it will kind of analyze your
metabolism
to tell you more about what you are
burning
if you’re burning fat or if you’re
burning carbs
so your ideal thing to burn in the
morning is fats
so my first week was really good because
in my first week i was burning a lot of
fat
i was getting more of level 1 and 2 on
my commitment
for that first week so yeah this
is kind of how it looks like i’m not
sure if you guys can see it very well
but um this is for this week so this
week alone
on monday i was on level three tuesday
level four that means i was burning more
of caps
on wednesday i was on level three
thursday
um i was level three as well friday
level four
but saturday i was on level two so on
saturday was a really good day for me
because
i was burning you know less i was
burning fats and dropped carbs yeah and
what happened to me on saturday was
because i didn’t eat
dinner so i didn’t eat dinner on friday
nights
and um i had my breakfast you know in
the morning
around 10 11 so it recorded
that i was burning more of fats so i
think the less you eat
the more fats you burn and um the more
you eat
the more carbs you burn so that is how
i’ve been able to analyze my metabolism
that way
um so this device would really be good
for people that are like
fitness enthusiasts or
people who are very active you know
fitness wise
they’re the ones that would really
benefit from this product
but as a mom of two i’m trying to lose
some weight
and i’m trying to watch my diet and all
of that and i have been able to find
this device helpful to me so for example
today i’ve been recommended to eat
60 grams of carbs 55 grams of
fat and 1 10 grams of protein
so i’m on a low carb day
so i need to get enough protein and it
helps
preserve my muscle mass that is what
they have said
on there so why did i get this
this um plant today you are burning fat
for energy that’s what it says i’m just
going to read why it gave me this
recommendation
so it says you are burning fat for
energy
the recommended carb servings in your
daily plan
will allow you to remain in a fat
burning state
your workout today doesn’t require
additional caps so if i need to work out
right now i can just go ahead and do my
workouts
because i do not need to eat like
anything before i work out
yeah so this kind of helps you again if
you’re someone who
you know always goes to the gym in the
morning
um it will kind of tell you if you need
to eat before you go to the gym
or if you’re okay to just you know go on
and burn some fat
in the gym whatever i know so yeah it
helps you do that
um it gives you your commitment
goals for the week you know it shows
your commitment goal
um another thing that is really super
helpful is that it has this kind of
meal inspiration meal ideas
where it just shows you the kind of
foods that are going to be required
for you to eat like it’s if you if you
have a low carb day
it will tell you like how many servings
of you know maybe rice or something that
you need to eat for that day
it will give you like an idea of the
kind of portions you should have
maybe you should have more of salmon on
the plate
with mixed veggies and just a little bit
of potatoes
or like a little bit of carbs it kind of
gives you
an idea of how your your meal should
look like
and um this is just like an example
don’t worry i’ll show you guys
a closer picture of this so this is just
like
an example of you know how the meals
look like and how the portion sizes are
it will tell you your breakfast lunch
snack dinner options you can have any
meal
that you want based on the inspiration
on here
so it tells you more of like your
nutrition it tells you what a carb
serving is
it breaks down what carbohydrates are
what vegetables are
proteins fats how to meal prep
diets drinks and carbs how to drink
enough water
alcohol and carbs and eating out it just
gives you like
you know breakdown of all of these
things to make you
you know more enlightened and more
educated about
what your metabolism needs and
so yeah it also has some lumen basics um
it says how to win
with lumen it just breaks down how to
use your
living device to breathe it also tells
you how to take an accurate breath
measurement
following lumens nutritional plan your
data for yesterday
why take your morning measurement after
and overnight fast
how to use lumen daily what is your
lumen flex score i
i don’t have my lumen flex score yet
because it’s not yet a month
of using this so when it is a month of
using this i will have my lumen flex
score
which then hacks my whole metabolism
and you know i would have a more clearer
picture of
my kind of metabolism so yeah
then the benefits of high flex score um
breathing before your workout breathing
after your workouts
so any time i want to engage in a home
workout
i breathe into this device it records it
for me and
after about 30 minutes of doing my
exercise i will breathe again into this
device and it will
record it as well so yeah
so here it tells me about my insights it
tells me how to train my metabolism to
burn
fat how my body chooses what fuel to use
either the carbs or the fats equation
my metabolic flexibility when my body
can use carbs efficiently
sleeping my way to a healthy metabolism
it also analyzes
my sleep pattern so it helps me to you
know have a better idea of
how to have better sleep how many hours
to sleep for
and how to sleep my way to a healthier
metabolism
so on here you can also practice
breathing as well
and you can learn how to breathe um i
found it i found it difficult to
breathe in the first week of using
device i was always
feeling all my breath you know
measurements because it was so difficult
for me
but i kind of have a hang of it right
now which i will show you guys how i do
it
um basically all you need to do first
off is to tilt your head backwards and
you know breathe in like this
that is what i found to be the solution
to my
my my own you know measurements if i do
like this
i would do it perfectly but if i do like
this i’ll do like this
as it i wouldn’t have the right breath
measurement i don’t know why but it
doesn’t work out for me that way
but anytime i tilt my head up and tilt
the device like this i always get it
right so i think maybe my
my throat or something opens up when i
tilt my head up i’m not sure
but that is what i have found to work
for me um
you also have your weight measurement on
there your bmi
so i’ve selected the healthy weight loss
tracking
and um it says my daily calories should
be 1
104 and after a
500 calorie deficits okay so
my lumen flex score hasn’t been unlocked
yet because i’m on week two
so i need two more weeks to go for me to
get my lumen flex score
so now it also shows you like all of
your lumen scores for
for each week um so yeah this is my
current week so after
um tomorrow tomorrow is sunday so after
tomorrow i’ll be in my final week to get
my flex score
and again i’m excited about that so i’m
going to show you guys how i breathe
into my device
and there’s this kind of breath um sign
on top i’ll turn my device on from this
little button right here
and um it will pair with my phone
and that is what it is doing now so yeah
it says
let’s go take three normal breaths
through your nose
then inhale deeply through your lumen
hold your breath
exhale in three two one
so it says that i have passed that first
breath
and i need to take a second one because
it will do this
three times okay okay
i’m not sure if you guys can see very
well
take three normal breaths through your
nose then
inhale deeply through your lumen
hold your breath
exhale in three two one
yeah i got it right the second time
so i need one more breath to complete
you know the analysis so yeah
i’m now a pro at breathing into this
thing at first i couldn’t really do it i
was like
i was bringing too fast or too slow
or too short so but now i now have a
hurry
normal breaths through your nose then
inhale deeply through your lumen
[Music]
hold your breath
exhale in three two one
yeah it got right and it’s going to
you know analyze it all for me so that
is what it is saying
so it is saying that i’m on level three
and level three means
i’m burning both fats and carbs
and that is what it means so i’m burning
between 42 to 63 percent
fat so yeah i’m on level three now
so right now i can do my workouts maybe
i could go for a walk for about
15 minutes and then relax
a bit and then take my measurements
again
just to close that whole you know
metabolism hacking you know breath
test so yeah yeah i also have to mention
the calibration day so calibration day
was
the next day after my first breath with
the lumen
so the calibration day kind of
calibrated my whole
day and you know analyzed all of my
breaths
and just you know gave me like you know
my food portions and all of that
all of that jazz yeah i did the
calibration day
and so it kind of brought me to this
phase where i am now where
each time i breathe it just tells me my
you know my nutrition basics and you
know all of that so each week
when you complete a week it will ask you
for your weight
just so that you can track your weight
to know if you are losing weight or not
um i had to go and buy a weight
measurement
because um yeah i needed it for my lumen
to work with my lumen
um yeah so i would you know use that
weight measurement
to weigh myself and indicate the
measurement on my lumen
so yeah well i do i um like the product
i feel like the product is good if you
are really curious
about tracking or if you’re really
curious about
hacking your metabolism um it kind of
shows you
if you’re burning fats or if you’re
burning carbs
and it kind of you know tells you the
kind of food portions
that you can eat more of and um it kind
of analyzes
the healthy things that you need to eat
so if you want to eat healthy
if you want to lose weight um this is a
good device for you
because it also measures your breath
before a workout and that’s why it work
out so yeah
it’s kind of on the days where on the
days where you feel
weak you feel tired um it’s because of
your metabolism
yeah so whenever you feel weak and tired
you know it kind of tells you maybe
you’re eating some
kind of carbs that you know can weigh
you down
and stuff like that so you might need to
eat a more healthier diet
you know just to maintain your health
your metabolism
and of course because of the food that
we eat it reflects in our health
and it kind of it could boost your
energy or it could reduce your energy
so yeah that’s why it’s good to have a
device like this
that kind of breaks it all down to you
and keeps you
educated on you know your metabolism
so will i buy this product um
it comes at a hefty price so yeah this
is a sponsored product so it comes at a
hefty price
um but will i buy it i don’t think i
would buy this product
because of the hefty price but if it was
something cheaper
at a more realistic and ideal price
i would buy it and because all i just
feel like it’s quite
expensive for what it does because this
is something that
you could just go on youtube to check
out your food portions
like this kettle diet that could help
you lose weight so you could just go on
the kettle diet
and save yourself from buying the lumen
so i feel like
lumen if you’re listening i would
suggest that you reduce your price
to make it more attractive for people to
purchase
the item because it’s actually a good
item but
the price could be discouraging to many
because all
you need to do with the device is just
breathe and that
is it the bulk of everything that
happens is on the app
and um this is just a brilliant device
seriously
so you might people might want to skip
this whole
breeding part out and every other
suggestion every other thing that app
gives you
is something you can find online it’s
something
a personal trainer could tell you so
yeah that’s the price is you know the
basic
thing that needs to change in all of
this
so yeah i hope you guys have enjoyed

lumen device
