100. Should you be wearing a glucose monitor?

Welcome back to The Down to Earth PCOS Nutrition Podcast!

Today I am answering a common question I get asked: “Should I be wearing a Continuous Glucose Monitor to manage my PCOS?”

Whether you’ve seen IG influencers wearing one for their diabetes, PCOS or for no real reason (I get into this on the episode!), or you’ve seen an ad about managing blood sugar by wearing a device and wondered if it’s something you need to do to reduce insulin resistance - I’m here to clarify this topic for you!

In today’s podcast episode I am breaking down what you need to know about glucose monitors, how they work, what they’re good for and who would benefit from wearing one. I think I covered every possible question you may have on this topic on today’s pod.

When you tune in you’ll learn if glucose monitors are helpful for PCOS or possibly harmful. 

What You’ll Learn on this Podcast Episode:

• Should you be wearing a CGM with PCOS and not diabetes?
• Is a CGM a good option for someone with PCOS?
• How to manage blood sugar and IR with or without a CGM.
• Is a CGM doing more harm than good?
