The Data Dilemma: When Hyper-Personalized Health Becomes Hyper-Obsession

If you're tracking your sleep, glucose, or recovery score, you know the allure of Hyper-Personalized Wellness. Wearable tech promises to cut through generic health advice and hand you the blueprint to your perfect self. But what happens when that blueprint turns into a demanding master?


Host Alicia C. Simpson MS,RD,IBCLC,LD, a self-confessed data enthusiast, dives into the promises and the profound perils of self-monitoring.


What You Will Learn and Why You Must Listen:

  • The Promise and the Pitfall: We analyze the true benefits of tools like Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) and smart rings for optimizing performance and recovery.
  • The Clinical Confusion: We expose why many metrics used by wearables, like GMI (on CGMs) and "Cardio Load" (on smart rings), are proprietary scores with no clinical equivalent—meaning they mean nothing to your doctor.
  • The Orthorexia Trap: Learn how the drive for data perfection can quickly slide into dangerous patterns of Orthorexia Nervosa and classic eating disorders.
  • The "Almond Mom" Connection: We break down why the trending "Almond Mom" fixation on purity and control is essentially Orthorexia, and how to spot these warning signs in yourself or a loved one.
  • The Responsible User: We provide critical guidelines on how to use wearables healthily—including why you must prioritize intuitive body cues over a single daily score, and why you must consult a specialized Registered Dietitian to interpret complex CGM data responsibly.


Don't let your tech be your tyrant. Tune in now to learn how to make your data a tool for wellness, not a weapon for obsession.
