How a CGM Optimized My Habits | LEVELS Continuous Glucose Monitor Review

Amazing explanation
Wonderful

I love the idea of CGMs for health optimisation. Your own data can be very powerful. But the issue I have found is that if you have little muscle in your arms then the CGM is not accurate, is painful or just does not last for the full 2 weeks. This means those with muscle loss due to illness or suffering from sarcopenia can not benefit from this important technology.

The first 12-24hr after inserting your CGM is sometimes not very accurate.

Have you tried Inside Tracker?

Thanks for the information. I use the Ambrosia Blucon with Libre sensor, It helps me to monitor readings on the Apple Watch and iPhone, the alarms help me at night. It also has food insight option which helps to show which food effects on glucose and I can track my activity status too like exercise, running etc.

Wow, really great video! Most informative video on Levels I’ve found.

TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY! I do fine with my Libre.

I started to watch but at the very beginning you she is at her breakfast table, there was a dish towel with a picture of Fauci's face. Totally destroyed your credibility.

Love the Fauci towel!!!!!

I love your reviews this was so helpful.

This was very helpful. I appreciate your detailed descriptions and honest opinion.

I noticed you also reviewed NutriSense. For someone that wants to optimize health which device would you recommend--NutriSense or Levels? FYI: I will not enter in all of my meals meticulously.

Great video, informative

These sensors are the same ones that diabetes patients require. People that could actually die without one. Health care has a shortage of these sensors because they are being sold for exorbitant amounts to regular consumers. This is horrible and people should be informed

Love it 🔥

Great review! Quick question, what do you do with the app the 11 months following your month with CGM's unless you decide to do more CGM's?

Nice presentation well done. I started using Dexcom G6 6 months ago. I am 57 y and having T2D since 1996. I have tried lots of tools you can imagine. And I can say it’s the first time I am seeing I am ahead of my killer. 😂

I may have GSD9, with low fasting levels. Do you think Levels will pick up on this? or do you think the Libre will think this is an error with the sensor?

thanks for your insight and pros/cons!

it is a good technology however so expensive. and when in fact they are collecting our data and we are paying them. Go figure!!

Excellent walk through and review 👌🏻

Thank you for this extremely helpful video! I would love to track myself with Levels, but I live in Hawaii and they don’t ship here. A big favor..would by chance remember the packaging it came in.. e.g., was it a FedEx box, or USPS? and might you remember the approximate dimensions? My sister lives in Oregon and I’m wondering how it would be for her to ship it to me. Thank you in advance for any reply!!

Well, she's over the top as a qualified presenter AFAIC. But isn't A1C a long term indicator of glucose? Isn't that number good enough?

Thanks for sharing your experience. It seems to me that once you have learned what foods have which effects, that you wouldn't need more data? I'm glad to learn from others rather than spend $400 to learn on my own.

Very informative, thank you

Thanks Lara for sharing great details. I'm utilizing Ambrosia's real-time Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system, which incorporates the FreeStyle Libre sensor in conjunction with the BluCon and LinkBluCon applications. This setup has significantly contributed to my weight loss journey, helping me shed 15 lbs within a span of 30 days. The 'food insights' feature in the application has been instrumental in my progress as it allows me to understand how different foods affect my body. Consequently, I've been able to limit intake of foods that significantly raise my glucose levels. This, in turn, has been highly beneficial for my intermittent fasting regimen.

Why TF did they put an 8h limit of info in the sensor…? Why not 12h for example… just to make people loose data when they are busy…?

Can you comment on the infection risk of the Levels device?

This is looks more like an advertisement than anything else, sorry.

If you are not measuring even baseline fasting insulin, Trigs, and HDL, then how does BG levels and excursions alone help you?

why do you need to transfer data from Libre app to levels app?
isn't that a rip off?
you have to pay $199 for the app, where's Libre app is free, and gives you the same data, a lot faster.

Hey no offense but that swallowing sound is disgusting.
