Continuous Glucose Monitor

Continuous Glucose Monitor • 4 Months Tracking • May 25 th -> November 9th • 14 Sensors • (2 weeks per sensor) • 21,022 Measurements • Every 15 minutes • Also Measuring • Resting Heart Rate (Fitbit) • Weight • Heart Rate Variability (emFit)

Glucose Levels

Glucose Levels Highest Value in Data Set - 310

Glucose – Under Stress 350 300 250 200 150 100 50 0 06:00 08:00 10:00 12:00 14:00 16:00 18:00 20:00 22:00 00:00 Giving Talk at Quantified Self 2017, Amsterdam

Glucose – Under Stress Started New Job – September 2017

Glucose – Actively Lowering Managing Glucose Levels – with Exercise, Diet & Stress

What Did I Learn?

What Did I Learn? • Huge Variance in Fasting Glucose • We can Lower Fasting Glucose through Tracking • Reaction to Glucose Very Personal (n=1 experiments) • Likely many other relationships I’m not seeing here!!
