Tracking & Data
CGM Glucose Monitoring
Continuous glucose monitoring reveals metabolic patterns.
What
Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) track blood glucose levels 24/7, showing how food, exercise, sleep, and stress affect your metabolic health.
Why
Glucose variability is linked to inflammation, oxidative stress, and metabolic dysfunction. Understanding your glucose responses helps optimize nutrition for serious illness management.
Evidence
Studies show CGM data can identify individual food responses that standard tests miss. People with serious conditions benefit from understanding their metabolic patterns.
Implementation
Wear consistently for 2-3 months to establish patterns. Review weekly trends, not daily fluctuations.
Caution
CGMs are most useful for identifying patterns. Don't obsess over single readings — focus on trends and post-meal responses.
