(Fox News) You may soon be able to monitor everything you eat in real-time, digitally through a tooth-mounted sensor. New miniaturized sensors were developed by researchers at the Tufts University School of Engineering.
The small device, made of three layers, would track everything you consume, including glucose, salt and alcohol. It would then transmit the data wirelessly to a mobile device.
A study set to be published in the journal Advanced Materials explores how the sensors could work in the future. Researchers they the devices may eventually be able to detect a wider range of nutrients, chemicals and physiological states.
