Continuous Glucose Monitoring
Dexcom G6 Pro -
Anyone who has spent any time at our clinic knows that we are big on understanding and regulating blood sugar--especially in weight loss, high cholesterol, anxiety/depression, and gut health. We now have an incredible and affordable way to monitor blood sugar in real time.
The new device is called Dexcom G6 Pro- Continuous Glucose Monitor. This is a device that inserts in your skin for 10 days and gives you real time glucose readings every 5 minutes.
For anyone with diabetes this is a must. It's also great for you if you're struggling with weight, energy, mood instability, understanding how the food (and stress) in your life is actually affecting you.
We have been encouraging patients to:
Get a 10 day sensor put in
Eat your normal foods, have a couple cocktails, experience the normal stressors, exercise the same and observe the patterns that come
Have a consultation to discuss the results
Then repeat another 10 days with some dietary and lifestyle shifts.
This will help to see if you can drastically influence the results, and thus, your overall metabolic health. Stay tuned for a youtube series on it with a more in-depth explanation.
