Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) can aid in better glucose management by focusing on lifestyle choices. Maintaining glucose levels within the target range of 70-180 mg/dL is crucial for reducing complications. The CGM Trend Arrows can help track glucose changes, providing insights for making necessary lifestyle adjustments. Monitoring glucose levels at key times like waking up, before and after meals, physical activity, during stress, and illnesses is important. Lifestyle factors such as food choices, physical activity, medications, and stress management play a significant role in glucose control. Opting for whole, fresh foods, avoiding sugary beverages, and regular physical activity are recommended. Consistency in medication adherence, adequate sleep, and stress reduction techniques are also essential for optimal glucose management. Comparing glucose levels to target ranges and identifying patterns can guide adjustments in lifestyle choices. By making small changes like adjusting meal portions, increasing physical activity, or modifying medication regimens based on monitoring data, individuals can actively improve their glucose levels and overall well-being.
