How Wearable Patches Are Measuring Blood Glucose Noninvasively
from The Wearable Tech Podcast with Fexingo: Smartwatches, Fitness Trackers, and Health Devices · host Fexingo
Lucas and Luna explore the emerging world of noninvasive continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) — wearable patches that use optical sensors, radio waves, or interstitial fluid sampling to track blood sugar without needles. They break down the key players: the FDA-cleared Abbott Freestyle Libre 3 (still microneedle-based), the race for truly noninvasive tech from startups like Know Labs and Movano, and why Dexcom's G7 is investing in over-the-counter access. They discuss accuracy challenges, how athletes and biohackers are using CGMs to optimize performance, and whether the future of wearables will include glucose monitoring for everyone, not just diabetics. The hosts also touch on the regulatory hurdles and the potential for these patches to integrate with smart rings and fitness trackers. A concrete look at a technology that could redefine metabolic health monitoring. #WearableTech #CGMs #ContinuousGlucoseMonitor #Noninvasive #Abbott #Dexcom #KnowLabs #Movano #BloodSugar #MetabolicHealth #DiabetesTech #HealthTech #FitnessTracking #Biohacking #FDA #WearablePatches #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
