Wellness enthusiasts have become increasingly aware of their blood sugar levels, thanks in part to content creators who share their experiences with continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) and how they use these wearable devices to track and optimize their health.
We asked our chief medical officer, Sohaib Imtiaz, MD, to explain if CGMs are helpful for people without diabetes.
Q: Continuous glucose monitors are becoming increasingly popular—even among people who don't have diabetes. Is there really a benefit to tracking your blood sugar if you're otherwise healthy?
Imtaiz: CGMs can provide real-time feedback that drives behavior changes. Anyone can benefit, but people who are on a weight loss journey or those with prediabetes stand to benefit most.
