How To: Change the Way You Consume with Continuous Glucose Monitoring

Here at BIÂN we approach wellness from many angles. One way that we can support your nutrition choices and overall health, is to completely understand how your body responds to what you eat and drink—it’s essential for optimizing health, performance, and longevity. Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) are revolutionizing this understanding by offering real-time insights into how food, stress, and lifestyle choices impact your blood sugar levels. For example, a smoothie in the morning may be doing more harm than good based on your unique makeup; where that same smoothie in the afternoon, could be more nourishing to your levels. BIÂN’s CGM program goes beyond the basics, integrating this cutting-edge tool with expert guidance with our Director of Naturopathy & Nutrition, Dr. Ben Schuff, to help you make informed, impactful changes.

Using a CGM isn’t just about avoiding blood sugar spikes; it’s about creating a lifestyle that supports balance and well-being that supports you as an individual, and not a blanket approach. Here are a few strategies you might discover through BIÂN’s CGM program:

  • Timing Matters: Learn how eating earlier in the day versus late at night impacts your glucose stability.
  • Food Pairing: Understand how combining carbs with protein or healthy fats can minimize spikes and sustain energy.
  • Smart Snacking: Discover which snacks maintain glucose balance and avoid energy crashes.
  • Stress Management: Recognize how stress affects your glucose levels and implement mindfulness or other relaxation techniques.
  • Sleep Optimization: See the connection between poor sleep and elevated glucose levels, and adjust your nighttime routine accordingly.
