Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) Explained

Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) serve as an effective tool for tracking blood sugar levels in real-time, providing insights into dietary impacts on glucose regulation. A new model, the Stelo CGM, offers a budget-friendly option compared to brands like Dexcom and Levels, providing a month’s supply for about $50. This non-medical CGM is user-friendly, requiring minimal setup to monitor glucose levels, though it does not provide detailed medical data for hypoglycemia. It is particularly beneficial for individuals looking to understand how various meals affect their blood sugar without over-restricting their diet.
