He explores: What sleep trackers actually measure versus what they only model Orthosomnia and the rise of tracker-induced sleep anxiety Where Oura, Whoop, and Apple Watch are reliable, and where they aren't HIPAA gaps, FDA clearance, and what your data is worth Who benefits from wearing one, and who probably shouldn't This episode is for anyone wearing a sleep tracker, considering one, or wondering whether the score on their wrist is making them healthier or just more anxious.
