Should you check your blood sugar at home?! — Dr. Eric Westman

Should you check your blood sugar (a.k.a. blood glucose) at home? You can use a fingerstick glucometer for a one-time measurement of your blood sugar, and continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) that measure it 24/7 are increasingly available, too. Do you need to use one of these? They can be helpful, but they’re not necessary for most people. (Remember, people have been using low-carb diets for over two hundred years to lose weight and reverse type 2 diabetes.) If you take insulin for type 2 or type 1 diabetes, then measuring your blood sugar is extremely important so that you can adjust your insulin doses safely. Apart from that, though, Dr. Westman has been helping patients reverse type 2 diabetes long before CGMs even existed – and if you don’t have diabetes, then measuring your glucose really isn’t necessary. Watch Dr. Westman’s latest video for his thoughts on these glucose-measuring technologies.
