CGMs do appear to have some clear benefits and health applications. However, some critics argue that there are no long-term randomized controlled clinical trials showing that people without diabetes benefit from tracking their glucose with CGMs.
And they’re right—there aren’t any yet. But, as physician and metabolic health expert Dr. @peterattiamd points out in his article on CGMs:
“I can’t point you to a long-term randomized-controlled clinical trial rejecting the hypothesis that people with normal glucose responses don’t benefit from tracking their blood glucose because those trials don’t exist. There are examples where the randomized-controlled clinical trial data isn’t there, but we still have a strong reason to believe it’s true.”
CGM technology offers the ability to monitor, predict and motivate behavior change. Though research on the outcomes of using CGMs in non-diabetics is an emerging area with more work to be done, some studies already exist with promising potential.
By partnering with an expert to help you combine CGM insights with deeper dietary analysis and other lab and symptom markers of metabolic health, a more meaningful interpretation of CGM data with experimental interventions may be possible.
