[quote=Anonymous]NP. I have prediabetes and recently tried a CGM. It was really eye opening. All sorts of foods I thought were good for me (oatmeal, grapes, whole wheat bread, salads that were too big) caused incredible blood sugar spikes. I won’t use it forever, but it provided information about my biology that I will use to improve my diet in the future and hopefully lose some weight. I think having T1 would be incredibly hard, and my heart goes out to those folks. But it doesn’t take anything away from them if people who aren’t sick use CGMs. Don’t we want everyone to try to get healthier where they can? It’s hard to stay healthy in modern America with all our easy access to junk food. I didn’t truly understand how bad the food really was until I saw my own data. Maybe it would persuade other people too (even non-diabetics) and we could make some step toward improving the overall health of Americans (even the bro/bio hackers! 😊).[/quote]
