#112: Lessons From Tracking My Blood Sugar With a CGM

Blood sugar regulation is a huge missing puzzle piece for so many people on their healing journeys.

If you often feel exhausted or have big dips in energy throughout the day, get hangry, experience anxiety or have trouble sleeping – these are all signs your blood sugar could be out of whack.

Recently, I experimented with using a CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitor) to track my blood sugar levels in real time.

The reason I wanted to try this out for myself is to see how the food I eat affects my blood sugar levels.

Today, I’m sharing the biggest lessons I learned from my CGM experiment, including:

• The importance of protein and fat in your diet

• Carbohydrates and blood sugar

• How to eat to maintain steady blood sugar levels

• The benefits of wearing a CGM

• The effects of erratic blood sugar

• The CGM I used and how it works

As I mention in the episode, I’m going to drop a few images here so you can wrap your head around what I mention in the episode.
