#79: Verneri Jaamuru - Benefits of Continuous Glucose Monitoring

Have you also wondered why top athletes and normal individuals have been sharing pictures lately of continuous glucose monitors? I sure did. What could they do and why the hell would someone run around with a needle in their shoulder for 14 days when they didn’t have diabetes? Well like many other things I thought I better try it myself to figure it out 😅 I therefore tested the Veri which is one of the most popular Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs). Short spoiler alert is that I thought it provided great insight and therefore got one of the founders on the podcast to share more about glucose monitoring and the insights we can apply in our daily life. In this episode we discuss: 👉 What is glucose and why it's important. 👉 What to eat first to avoid glucose spikes. 👉 How exercise, sleep and stress affect your glucose. 👉 How Veri can help you get individualized insight into your health. 👉 And so much more!
