An ingestible bacterial-electronic system to monitor gastrointestinal health

Using an Ingestible Telemetric Temperature Pill to Assess Gastrointestinal Temperature During Exercise.

Exercise results in an increase in core body temperature (Tc), which may reduce exercise performance and eventually can lead to the development of heat-related disorders. Therefore, accurate measurement of Tc during exercise is of great importance, especially in athletes who have to perform in challenging ambient conditions.
