About this episode
Director of Health Coaching, Trei Trackett is back on Wild Health podcast, to dive into the impact of food on glucose levels and how CGMs (continuous glucose monitors) can help identify which foods are best for you. Trei shares insights into other factors that can cause drops and spikes in glucose levels, such as cortisol, menstrual cycles, and excessive exercise. Dr. Mike Stone and Trei explore how certain "healthy" foods can actually cause glucose spikes and how CGMs can help track and analyze these responses to find which foods are best for you. We also discuss the concept of glycemic index and how it relates to high and low glycemic index foods. They also cover the impact of non-food factors on glucose levels and discuss the benefits of CGMs in managing glucose levels. We cover topics such as who can benefit from using CGMs, what goals CGMs can help with, what averages to aim for, and how to analyze data trends from your CGM. Join us to gain valuable insights into optimizing your diet and lifestyle for better health, and to learn about the many benefits of CGMs in managing glucose levels
