My CGM/Blood Sugar Experiment | 130

I take a deep dive into my 4 month CGM/Blood Sugar experiment in this episode! I share very practical aspects of using a CGM (continuous glucose monitor), what I learnt about my blood sugar response to various foods and other stressors and some suggestions to get the most out of your own CGM experiment should you wish to give it a go!  Having stable blood sugar levels is good for supporting thyroid health and if you"d like to understand why before listening to my personal story, check out episode 101 where I talk with Dr Ben Galyardt all about blood sugar and thyroid health. If you have any questions about my experiment feel free to ask in the comments!  Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) 03:28 Understanding Blood Sugar and Thyroid Health 05:07 Practicalities of Using a CGM 10:25 Exploring Different CGM Brands and Costs 20:13 Approaches to Blood Sugar Management 24:45 Introduction to the Vively App 24:49 Tracking Blood Glucose Responses 26:58 Impact of Stress on Blood Sugar Levels 28:52 Supplements for Blood Sugar Regulation 30:35 Before and After: Glucose Variability 33:00 Exercise and Its Effects on Blood Sugar 35:42 Food Choices and Blood Sugar Responses 40:42 Tips from the Glucose Goddess 42:41 Personal Reflections on CGM Experiment 46:03 Conclusion and Recommendations 50:09 Disclaimer Let’s Talk Thyroid is a podcast where we explore different aspects of living thyroid-friendly lifestyle positively & practically to help you thrive and not just survive. ⭐️  WEBSITE: https://letstalkthyroid.com ✅ Download your FREE Printable Thyroid Health Checklist: https://letstalkthyroid.com/checklist 📚 Let"s Talk Thyroid BOOK: buy via https://letstalkthyroid.com or Amazon. 💋 Thyroid Coaching (Keeping It Super Simple - KISS): https://letstalkthyroid.com/thyroid-coaching -programs 📝 Full shownotes: https://letstalkthyroid.com/shownotes 🎙 Let"s Talk Thyroid on Spotify, Apple Podcast or your fav podcast app or watch on YouTube. 👥 Join the Let"s Talk Thyroid Community on Facebook ➡️ Instagram or Facebook @annabel.bateman.wellness Support the show: https://bit.ly/LTTDonate DISCLAIMER The information provided by Annabel Bateman and Let's Talk Thyroid in any format (including but not limited to podcast, audio, video, social media, books, courses, coaching) is not intended to diagnose treat, cure or prevent any disease.
