Do you remember that saying in Jurassic Park when Dr. Alan Grant said “just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.” This has always stuck with me, and is even now more relevant in our digital society. The advent of CGMs (Continuous Glucose Monitors) are going a bit viral these days, so much that people without diabetes are starting to use them. But are they actually necessary? What's the benefit of using one if you don't have diabetes? Is there an actual benefit?
In today's episode I'll discuss ...
- What CGM devices are and what they do
- Who and what they are specifically intended for
- The story of how two clients fell for the traps
- Explain what the research says about the benefits and costs
- Who should really use them
- How the body better than a machine
- One small approach to build interoceptive awareness
