The Promises and Controversies of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Technology with Nick Norwitz, PhD

My guest on episode 52 of the podcast is Nick Norwitz, PhD.

Nick earned his PhD from Oxford University and is currently a medical student at Harvard University. He's also a self-proclaimed metabolic health enthusiast.

Nick joined me to chat about continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and, in particular, a new study that he just published on the use of CGM in medical students as part of a pilot project in "metabolic immersion" education. This paper has been getting a lot of attention among nutrition enthusiasts, scholars, and medical professionals on social media, so we thought this would be a great opportunity to discuss some of the ongoing conversation.
