    Understanding Continuous Glucose Monitors With Cher Pastore, RD (Sponsored)

    Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are small devices that are inserted just under the skin — usually on the back of the arm — to measure glucose levels. To date, they've been widely used by those with prediabetes or diabetes. However, they are now being embraced by a broader audience of health-minded individuals who are curious about the insights they can gather from them because of the far-reaching effects that glucose levels have on health.    This technology is becoming more accessible to the general consumer and in this episode, Cher Pastore, RD, joins us to speak about the options available, how they work and what they measure, and the ways the data can be used to improve health.   This episode of Life Time Talks is sponsored by Dexcom, the makers of Stelo.   Find the episode highlights, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.lifetime.life/podcast/understanding-continuous-glucose-monitors-sponsored   Have thoughts you'd like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?
