Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems provide detailed information about real-time glucose levels, glucose fluctuations, and other glucose-specific metrics, helping you better understand lifestyle factors like food, exercise and stress which can impact these metrics.
Through dietary and lifestyle changes, it’s possible to reduce fluctuations in your glucose levels which in turn can boost mood, manage hunger, increase focus, improve energy levels and help you sleep better. (1-5)
