Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are no longer just for diabetes—they’ve entered mainstream fitness. Athletes and enthusiasts now track post-meal glucose spikes to refine nutrition. But is it cost-effective for healthy individuals? While CGMs reveal personalized responses to carbs, the benefits often plateau once key patterns are understood (e.g., oats vs. rice, timing of fruit). For most, a two-week trial provides enough insight without long-term expense. Instead of indefinite wear, pairing short CGM use with mindful eating and exercise data delivers practical takeaways. The real value lies in using CGM as a learning tool—not a permanent lifestyle gadget.
