Q&A: Why Use a Glucometer? - FORD BREWER MD MPH

Episode Summary

Use a glucose meter to learn how food and exercise affect your glucose patterns. Two good choices for a continuous glucose monitor are the Freestyle Libre and Dexcom G6. While these constant glucose monitoring devices can't replace a more "accurate" lab glucose test (say, OGTT and insulin survey), they would serve you well in managing diabetes or prediabetes.
