Mastering Your Diet: Insights from Nutrisense CGM Review

[@randywatson341]

CGM-for-the-masses will be one of the most game-changing tech developments in years. Kudos to you for recognizing this Katie. You're great at picking the most cutting edge stuff. I don't think we're far from a point where red/green light is used to estimate glucose continuously in Apple Watch, Oura Ring or whatever the dominant all-purpose wearable will be. I saw a red-light CGM at CES this year.

[@katie_moore]

i really appreciate the feedback, Randy! And funny enough I feel behind the times as I've heard Peter Attia talking about them for a few years now! So happy to get the word out. Also what was the name of the company with the red-light CGM? sounds super cool!

[@randywatson341]

@@katie_moore Peter is the best. If you're getting cues from him you're already ahead.

[@randywatson341]

Also, apologies for the fact that I cannot remember the company with the red-light CGM. They were based in China and the guy gave me his biz card and I lost it :( But I know they were trying to simultaneously sell their own device (a $1500 CGM watch) while also seeing if Apple or other manufacturers would buy them out and integrate the tech. Its really just software at this point so not efficient to have their own device. My guess is that the Apple's of the world are already testing out different software solutions and will eventually incorporate one when they're very confident of the reliability. The only problem is that leaders like Apple have too much reputation at stake and often require extreme reliability for mass products. Whereas people like you & your subscribers might be more interested in earlier versions of things with iffy reliability. So our crowd will probably be using CGM before its on an Apple watch.

diabetes treatment hit the mainstream sheeple

[@Void2204]

This is WAY too interesting! I’d never even heard of glucose monitor that can connect and record your glucose levels via your phone! My mom and BF are both diabetic and use the little monitors that you have to prick your finger every time. Such an interesting piece of health tech! Thanks for the review Katie! Cannot wait to see your follow-up vid on this one!

[@katie_moore]

this means the world! i absolutely agree this health tech could be a game changer...you should have both your mom and BF look into getting a prescription for the dexcom device!

[@slapomatic]

i can't imagine always having to prick your finger every day...a. CGM seems like such a great tool for diabetics.

[@miajones7109]

@@katie_moore I have been using blucon which is an electronic transmitter and converts FSL to an active CGM. Besides tracking sugars it gives you great information on the food and exercise, how they affect your sugars and this can help you stable your metabolism

Just got mine today, so excited to see the results. TY for review.

[@chrisf6421]

Thanks for the great review! Might be getting ahead here, but did you notice changes you made have a impact on your sleep and mood? How much longer do you think you will continue with Nutrisense?

[@katie_moore]

LOVE this question! haven't noticed any crazy changes in my sleep data yet, but putting that on the list of things to address in my next video! I'm definitely planning to work with Nutrisense for at least another month and then play it by ear after that. As I mentioned in my video, until the price comes down significantly, this unfortunately cannot be a long-term thing for me financially. BUT that's why I'm doing all these crazy self experiments while I have the device on so at least I can get some baselines going :)

[@megdarla625]

Great video, could really benefit a lot of people with or without underlying health conditions. I can't wait to watch the 2nd one! Have you tried the Bace Hemp Capsules? I had an interesting experience with my starter pack and would like to know your experience.

[@katie_moore]

thank you so much!!! couldn't agree more...funny enough I'm doing a sleep experiment with Bace this month so stay tuned for that review :)

[@katie_moore]

YAY!!! So happy to hear! Funny enough, this had been on my radar and to-do list for over a year. Totally worth it finally going forward with it!! Can't wait to see prices for these things come down so they can be more sustainable and accessible for people!

[@miajones7109]

I use ambrosi'a blucon nightrider and it has immensely helped me control my levels better, for instance after exercising my levels were spiking up, so now i have spilt my exercise into two parts and now my levels are stable.

[@ShervinShares]

Glucose control! Can’t wait to see that

[@katie_moore]

me too!!! fingers crossed this will be a game changer for people who need it most :)

[@blueberry_salsa8758]

Hi Katie! How long did it take for you to get the consultation and then actually receive the monitor? I find their staff communication is slow.

[@katrinarodis2845]

Thanks for this! Did you have to calibrate it using your blood glucose meter every day or just once at the beginning?

[@katie_moore]

just had to calibrate it once and i was good to go!!!

[@stephanieritchie199]

I really appreciate this video, and learning about all the pros and cons. I just ordered my CGM with Nutrisense today! Do you recommend a specific blood glucose meter to calibrate it with? I've never used one before, and many of the reviews on Amazon state that there can be + or - 18% accuracy.

[@katie_moore]

Yay! Congratulations Stephanie! I'm so happy you are going to learn more about your health! I use the Precision Xtra by Abbott Labs. It's a good monitor because it can measure both Ketones and Glucose. There are cheaper options that only do glucose.

[@staylolife]

Have you ever tired a cutting edge carb & sugar enzyme blocker with a CGM? We drop post meal spikes by 40% or more.

[@leweezo33]

I can't find a FDA approval of this device.. Is it covered by insurance like the Eversense?.. The eversense lasts 180 days, how long does this last? BTW, the eversense has the best accuracy too.. check it out

[@VisorGirl]

When using a CGM with intermittent fasting, what should my reading be to stop the fast & begin my eating window?

[@lilystonne4108]

I bought the Freestyle Libre 2. It was not very accurate when compared to a blood glucose monitor. The difference ranged from 0.5 to 1.9 mmol/L. Average was 1.1 mmol/L higher than the glucose monitor. So I just reduced the Libre 2 reading by 1.0. I also checked the Libre 2 once per day for consistency. I will buy another cgm 6 months from now. I hope Nutrisense is more accurate.

[@merry5059]

Maybe it’s the CGM that’s accurate and not your hand held glucose monitor?

[@lilystonne4108]

@@merry5059 I have several monitors.

Hi. The nutrisense dietician only supports the first month of a 3 month subscription. Did you feel this was long enough?

[@ortizlydia22]

It should be stated that the opposite applies for this who are hypoglycemic. Eating/snacking is necessary or glucose can easily drop dangerously low. Not everyone can fast, especially for a ton of hours.

[@sonitty]

Does this device and otherCGMs penetrate the skin or what exactly? I don't understand how it can monitor your blood glucose levels without access to the blood.... Also temp restrictions make any sauna use impossible.

[@katie_moore]

It puts a tiny thread into your arm that comes in contact with your blood. That’s how it reads glucose levels. I wore my CGM in the sauna a couple times and it didn’t break. Hope that helps!

[@roy-whereamI]

Good information, well presented. Thanks.

[@martijobarrett4527]

Thank you for the review! 😃👍 I wish you would have told us your numbers. 😜You are so lean that it makes me wonder what your highs and lows were. You said you were healthy without diabetes, so I just wonder your range. Skyrocketing after a potato is what for you? I would think 200? I just have no idea. Extra lows may be 55? Maybe in your next video. Thanks again!💃🏻💞

[@gogr2409]

Good video, thanks! Can’t you just buy a Freestyle Libre without the dietary service and do it on your own?

[@katie_moore]

unfortunately you cannot buy them directly without a doctor. Or if you can they are insanely expensive. It's a problem with the medical/prescription industry that needs to change.

[@demirkafasutlac2343]

Does it measure how many calories you burn?

[@TheAO84]

Very informative. 😊

[@katie_moore]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jkl6868]

You looked like you are on ketosis, I was like that as I was peeing away all my protein. I could eat drink anything I want, but I was still losing weight!

[@miawatnik2818]

wait how do u ask a doctor for a cgm without diabetes

[@katie_moore]

So Nutrisense and Levels are two companies now that are doing CGMs without a doctor's note! It's more expensive than if you go through a doctor but it means that anyone can get them! Time for the industry to change. You shouldn't need to already have a medical condition in order to be allowed to monitor your own health metrics!

[@joesild]

Would love to see how infrared sauna and cold thermogenesis affects your blood sugar.

[@katie_moore]

that's a fantastic one! only concern is the sauna part because according to NutriSense, the temperature can only go up to 113. Right now I only have access to a dry sauna, which far exceeds that temperature so I'm worried it might mess up the device :/

agreed but that's why I think a 2-week trial is a pretty good deal if you just want to get a baseline on your health and insulin sensitivity. but long term...it's just not sustainable for me right now. hopefully one day!!
