Shervin Shares: Youtube’s Human Guinea Pig — Testing Modern Tech for a Healthier Life

Which health gadgets are worth your money, and which ones do nothing? I sat down with Shervin from the YouTube channel Shervin Shares, a computer science grad who left software engineering, taught yoga, then turned testing wearables and health tech on himself into his full-time job.
