What is a CGM?

A Continuous Glucose Monitor is a small device worn on your arm for 14 days. It tracks your blood sugar every few minutes and sends real-time data to your phone.

Unlike finger-prick tests, CGM tells you:

  • What happens after meals

  • How your body responds to sleep, stress, or fasting

  • If your medication is actually working

  • When you're having hidden sugar spikes

๐Ÿ” Why Is This Important?

Most people only test blood sugar once or twice a dayโ€”but sugar can spike or drop dozens of times without warning. These hidden fluctuations are what cause:

  • Fatigue

  • Weight gain

  • Sudden cravings

  • Long-term complications (heart, kidney, nerve damage)

CGM reveals these โ€œsilentโ€ changes so you can fix them.

๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ What Youโ€™ll Discover from Wearing a CGM

๐Ÿ› Meals

See exactly how anjera, rice, bread, or sugary tea affect your sugar.
You might be surprised: some foods spike you more than others.

๐Ÿ˜ด Sleep

Discover the dawn phenomenonโ€”your sugar may rise in the early morning even without eating.

โณ Fasting

Track how your body behaves during Ramadan fasting or intermittent fasting.

๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ Exercise & Stress

Learn how walking after meals or getting stressed at work changes your sugar in real time.

๐Ÿ’Š Medication

Check if your current insulin, metformin, or other medications are actually controlling your sugar.
