As we grapple with current health concerns it is apparent that something just isn't working right.  Our lab values may be normal and yet we don't feel well.  Or....our lab values may be a little off kilter and we have a "pre" condition.  What does that mean?  Prediabetes?  What does this actually mean and what can be done about it?  Do we wait in line until we become diabetic so that we can have medications?

With the changes in our foods, the changes in our lifestyles and the change in medications to treat symptoms we can feel pretty lousy most of the time.

In response to this JSteele Wellness has decided to offer continuous glucose monitoring.

What does this mean, and who will it benefit?

This offering is meant to help those who may have: an inability to lose weight, fatigue and sleep issues, tiredness after eating, sugar cravings and addictions, joint and muscle pain, prediabetes and type II diabetes (not insulin dependent) to name just a few.

Continuous glucose monitoring  (Stelo cgm) is a device that is placed on the back of the arm with a very small sensor that stays in place in the tissue between the skin and the muscle.  It continually monitors your glucose response to food, sleep, stress and exercise and you learn which activities you can modify to keep this level steady.  This is very helpful information as when we can see spikes in glucose (and insulin) we can understand how to better care for our bodies so we relieve symptoms.

Deciding to use a Stelo cgm is a big step that will help to achieve some of your health goals.  We have a few Stelo CGMs available until they are sold out and we will be adding Theia Health as an alternative.
