This chapter focuses on the impact of GLP-1 drugs on continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) and introduces the new platform called STELO, which aims to aid type two diabetes management and potentially help patients wean off these medications. The speakers also discuss the possibility of STELO being available without a prescription and at an affordable price point, potentially entering the consumer health gadget market.
