DEBUNKING continuous glucose monitoring for healthy people: frequently asked questions

In this episode, I provide critical, science-based answers to the following questions:

Don’t traditional clinical tests miss the glucose variability that can only be detected by CGM?Doesn’t high blood glucose predict heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, etc.? So, this is a reason for non-diabetics to use continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), right?Doesn’t high blood glucose variability predict heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, etc.?OK, but although we don’t know exactly what the cutoffs should be for blood glucose spikes, doesn’t simply reducing blood glucose provide a benefit?Wait, I thought that CGM simply helped people to eat in a healthier way? Lowering carbohydrate is not necessary right?But don’t responses to each particular food differ from person to person?Doesn’t reducing glucose spikes reduce hunger?But I feel that CGM benefits me personally. Are you saying I cannot use CGMWhat harm could there be from using CGM as a nondiabetic?

I conclude that there is no evidence of benefit, no evidence for what CGM readings mean, and that the use of CGM to make nutritional choices could cause harm.
