Keeping track of personal wellness can quickly become an overwhelming task. I know first-hand. Every day after work, my roommate assesses his total physical condition: complete with calories burned at the gym, an itemized list of his caloric intake and even a rough estimate of his general activity level.

For those of you who don’t enjoy counting calories—whether they’re coming in or going out—and aren’t as keen on monitoring your own physical activity levels: Do not fret. For you, there is Bioring. As you can see in the video, Bioring boasts technology that will have you “performing at your optimal level.” In essence, you go about your day as you typically would, while Bioring logs all the data about your personal wellness—including personalized plans for you to improve certain areas of fitness. And while this might conjure up memories of the last fitness accessory craze, the Fitbit, Bioring promises to take things one step further.

This includes data specific to carbs, fats and protein. Here’s what it looks like:
