But, instead, that daily feedback you get from a continuous glucose monitor is what can help people fine-tune and experiment and improve their habits in a much more rapid and meaningful way.

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
it has allowed me to very eloquently calibrate how to tether activity levels nutrient deprivation the consumption of treats and minimize the damage you know I don't know that I could drive a racecar very well without seeing my rpm tach like if you plug my ears so that I couldn't actually hear the rev of the engine and you took away my rpm tach and said Drive could I still drive the car yes could I Drive it half as well as I can drive it when I know exactly where I'm shifting at every moment where I need to shift mmm no there's simply no way like it you know we don't we just were feedback machines we need feedback
we don't we just were feedback machines we need feedback

Like we just, we're feedback machines. We need feedback. So I'm a huge CGM advocate and really looking forward to what the next few years will bring when these things can become a lot more affordable and a lot more accessible.
But that actually gets to the second point, which is it has allowed me to very eloquently calibrate how to tether activity levels, nutrient deprivation, the consumption of treats, and minimize the damage.
