Continuous Glucose Monitors - or CGM's - tell you how much glucose is in your body in real-time. But can they be helpful for runners? As the carb revolution continues and we understand the importance of high-carb fueling for endurance performance, the next logical question to ask is: Well, what's the optimal level of glucose? Is there a range that's most beneficial? Coach Hunter Allen joins us to discuss how to train effectively with a CGM. He is a USA Cycling Level I coach, founder of the Peaks Coaching Group, cofounder of TrainingPeaks Software, and a former professional cyclist with the Navigators team. Hunter has been coaching endurance athletes since 1995 and was also the BMX technical coach for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. His new book is now available for preorder: Training and Competing with a Continuous Glucose Monitor:  A User's Guide for Athletes. In this episode we discuss:  What CGM's do and don't do How to calibrate a continuous glucose monitor The importance of finding your personal optimal range How to fuel to prevent crashes (AND spikes) Potential drawbacks and who a CGM is not for If you have not yet, make sure you hit the subscribe or follow button in your podcast player so you never miss an episode of the Strength Running Podcast!

Send us a text     Hello and welcome to Episode 11 in our series, “Stay in His Presence,” Season 13. My name is Stephanie Wright, your host.      We are continuing in our study of the attributes of the Holy Spirit from A to Z. The title of today's podcast is “Spiritual Warfare—On the Battlefield.” This podcast will encompass spiritual warfare and military warfare from a Biblical perspective. Our guest speaker is Dr. Charles Wright, who will enhance our understanding of spiritual warfare with his expertise in military warfare. His experiences, like those of many soldiers, were unique because, on occasion, he waged spiritual and military warfare simultaneously. He will share two of those accounts today: "Wise Counsel" and "Living Among the Dead." Then we will continue this episode with a sequel, Part 2, "I'm Still Alive,"  and "Punji Pits," and "In the Trenches with the Holy Spirit." Thank you for joining us.STEPHANIE:   Welcome, Dr. Wright.CHARLES:      Thank you, Stephanie.STEPHANIE:  Before we get started on our topic of the Holy Spirit in spiritual warfare and military warfare, let's tell our listeners a little bit about you.            Charles served in the United States Army from August 3, 1966, to August 2, 1968. He was an infantry specialist medic. He served in Vietnam in 1967. He has received the Bronze Star with the "V" device for heroism and the Purple Heart for injuries he sustained in the war. He has also received the Vietnam Service Medal and the National Defense Service Medal. After his service, he graduated from college, received his master's degree from Ohio Christian University. On June 7 of this year, he received his doctorate in theology from North Carolina College of Theology. He is an ordained bishop and apostle. He is the founder of Charles George Missions, Inc. He is the father of two daughters and five grandchildren, and my husband of 52 years.CHARLES: Thank you, Stephanie.STEPHANIE: Here is a definition of spiritual warfare that I came up with recently.Spiritual warfare is the ongoing battle between God and His holy forces against Satan and his unholy forces both in the heavenly realm and on earth for control over humanity and their destiny—eternal life or everlasting damnation.Would you like to comment on that, or should we proceed directly to the encounters you had, which probably give that definition life?(The podcast continues with Dr. Wright's accounts in Vietnam.)If you want to contact us or comment on this podcast, please visit our website and select www.cgmissions.com/podcasts, where all episodes are available by category in series format.

Last week we discussed signs and symptoms of dysregulated blood sugar levels. Now, if you were concerned, I recommended speaking to your GP, however, often if you're not pre-diabetic or diabetic, they're not very concerned about your levels, and won't really spend the time to get them under control.So, today, I wanted to share how to take your own glucose readings, so you can see what your blood sugar levels are doing over the day, and so you can tweak your meals to better suit your blood sugar needs.Read more.Show notesReference ranges info and toolshttps://www.diabetes.co.uk/blood-sugar-converter.html#google_vignettehttps://www.levels.com/blog/what-should-my-glucose-levels-be-ultimate-guidehttps://www.bhf.org.uk/informationsupport/heart-matters-magazine/medical/tests/blood-sugarHelpful resourceshttps://endometriosis.net/living/diet-sugarhttps://endometriosis.net/living/how-to-balance-your-blood-sugar-levels-to-reduce-endo-symptomshttps://www.theendobellycoach.com/podcast/endo-blood-sugar-gargi-parikhhttps://www.theendobellycoach.com/podcast/glycemic-index-load-endohttps://www.theendobellycoach.com/podcast/endo-and-pms-the-key-to-reducing-mood-swings-anxiety-and-low-moods-in-your-luteal-phasehttps://www.theendobellycoach.com/podcast/non-food-blood-sugar-managementhttps://www.theendobellycoach.com/podcast/reduce-fatigue-endometriosis-symptoms-and-oestrogen-dominancehttps://www.theendobellycoach.com/podcast/endo-carbs-blood-sugarEndo and blood sugar researchhttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10967113/https://eurjmedres.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40001-023-01280-7https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8609862/https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-35236-yhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0378512223004115https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37673102/If using a CGMA few things to be aware of –Your blood sugar may see erratic or very high within the first 24 hours of wearing a CGM, this is normally an adjustment period so don't worry about that.Blood sugar levels tend to spike with exercise, stress and hot showers/baths.

In this episode, Dr. Mark talks with Meg, a registered dietitian who's lived with type 1 diabetes for 26 years. For much of her life, Meg kept diabetes in the background—taking insulin, but never really accepting the condition or believing she could manage it well. She avoided her pump and CGM, skipped checks, and did everything she could to hide diabetes from others. A hospitalization in 2016 changed everything. With honesty and humor, Meg shares how that wake-up call helped her take ownership of her T1D—and how, step by step, she rebuilt her confidence and transformed her daily life. From embracing diabetes tech to becoming a dietitian who now helps others do the same, Meg's story is one of resilience and rediscovery. If you've ever felt like diabetes is the only part of your life you can't get a handle on, this episode will hit home. Grab your FREE copy of the Diabetes Sucks and You Can Handle It audiobook HERE.

Episode Summary: Most women think their high morning blood sugar is from what they ate the night before—or not fasting long enough. But after tracking her own numbers with a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), I discovered that the real culprits were much deeper. In this solo episode, I share how I brought her fasting blood sugar back to normal (hello 70s and 80s!), and what truly made the difference. This episode is for any woman who's tried “everything” and still feels stuck with stubborn glucose spikes. Links Mentioned:

She also discusses her recent study presented at Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD), where CGM use helped women with gestational diabetes feel more confident and in control of their care.  From glucose tracking to blood sugar monitoring, this episode explores how biosensor technology supports more personalized, effective diabetes management - not just for patients, but for endocrinologists and primary care providers too. Whether you're focused on diabetes treatment, nutrition, or simply curious about the future of diabetes technology, this episode of Real-Time Real Talk reveals how CGM is making care more precise, proactive, and powerful.

In this episode, Dr. Mark talks with Kevin, who's lived with type 1 diabetes for over 30 years. For most of that time, diabetes was in the background—until a sudden complication forced him to pay attention. After developing diabetic retinopathy, Kevin overhauled everything. He cleaned up his diet, started using a closed-loop system, and brought his A1C down by more than 3 points. But his success came with a new challenge: burnout. Now, Kevin checks his CGM obsessively. He micromanages every number. And he feels like if he doesn't stay perfect, he could lose everything. This episode is a powerful reminder that fear can push us too far—and that even when we're doing well, we still need to protect our mental health.

Jill and Chris interview Dr. Paul Kolodzik, who uses the technology of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in his metabolic health practice. With the use of CGMs, he helps his patients achieve weight loss and improved health. He has also integrated the prudent use of the new weight loss medications into his practice. His new book: The Continuous Glucose Monitoring Revolution, presents a comprehensive program for metabolic health success using CGMs and limited use of weight loss medications. Dr. Kolodzik graduated from the University of Notre Dame and completed medical school and residency at Wright State University where he served as chief resident. He is a founding member of the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners. He is board-certified by both the American Board of Preventive Medicine and the American Board of Emergency Physicians. In a thirty-year emergency room career, he has cared for many patients in crises and has witnessed firsthand the failures of mainstream diets and the medical system overall, which prioritizes medications and surgery over diet and lifestyle changes to prevent and reverse disease.  For more information and links mentioned in this episode, please visit our website at BecomingElli.com

In today's solocast and episode #67 of The Nourishment Mindset, I touch on four topics that recently caught my attention. It's admittedly a hodgepodge but there is one consistent thread and that's the critical importance of knowing the INGREDIENTS in our food. We evolved eating real, whole single ingredient foods and that's where we should focus for optimal health given nutrient density. As Dr. David Lustig, author of Metabolical says, “if it has an ingredient label, it's suspect.” Bien dit (well said), as the French say. The problem is that the majority of Americans consume a shocking amount of nutritionally void ultra-processed junk that's always a combo of the same brutal food equation: seed oils + glyphosated grains + preservatives/colorants + sugar or one of its 60+ other names. If this “recipe” appears on anything in your home right now, my best advice is to toss it out!We start and end with good news. Topic #1 is a discussion about food dyes/ colorants and I'm beyond thrilled to know that the US will FINALLY be banning these from our food supply. This is a massive WIN no matter what political side of the aisle you occupy. West Virginia, one of the most metabolically sick states, lead this charge so good for them. Two of my trusted resources for deeper dives on food dyes are Vani Hari, aka The Food Babe who wrote Feeding You Lies and Marion Nestle, author of Unsavory Truth (no relation to the Swiss food company). This and other health-related changes are what I have been hoping for this year, albeit skeptically.I, too, fell victim to Big Food marketing and I share my story of being a competitive age-group triathlete in my twenties and unknowingly downing this junk in bottle after bottle of red Gatorade, something I'd never ingest now. The ingredients including Red40 are a toxic soup marketed to athletes and children for “hydration” when really it's a pile of chemical crap. (In case you're wondering, you can hydrate with water with some added high quality salt like Redmond Real Salt or Baja Gold.)Topics #2-3 present unsavory and infuriating news and I'll give you a couple hints: your milk and farmed salmon labels are hiding some super shady ingredients! Tune in to find out how what's lurking beneath the surface of those incomplete ingredient labels and how to make healthier choices. I also highlight some truly disgusting “innovations” by the food industry including sugary cereal-inspired bacon and a coffee creamer that serves up a side of diabetes with every sip. All is not lost, however, as my son found a chip — or shall I say crisp company that has one product doesn't use seed oils… what?!! Yep. (The only one here I found with ingredients that don't make me snarl is the Classic Original; the rest have questionable stuff so buyer as always must check the ingredients!)Finally, Topic #4 deals with a new CGM (continuous glucose monitor) on the market that is ground-breaking because it's the first one you can get legally if you don't have diabetes! Lingo is sold OTC. This is important because this access has been restricted: I share my story of importing a CGM from Canada to know my numbers because I was peeved that I was unable to buy one in the good ole USofA. If you're wondering to which numbers I'm referring, it's blood glucose (aka blood sugar) levels. Knowing these numbers is important for a few reasons: 1) people with impaired metabolic function will show higher than healthy glucose numbers indicating a problem well before a pre-diabetes diagnosis; 2) every person is different with respect to his response to a given food; and 3) and most importantly, you can REVERSE diabetes and blood sugar issues but you must be aware that there's an issue to do so. Since Type 2 Diabetes — a serious disease sickening every cell in the body, affects 50+% of the population (note I'm including “pre-diabetes”), it's a critically important issue.I learned about Lingo when a sales rep contacted me to offer me a free trial. I eagerly accepted and like any good wife, volunteered my husband as the guinea pig. I was easily able to analyze his data through their Bluetooth enabled app and he received important feedback on how different foods affected his glucose levels in real time. Fun times with your health coach wife, right?!!FINE READ-I'm absolutely loving The Oxygen Advantage by Patrick McKeown. While breathing is an autonomic process — involuntary, that doesn't mean we have it mastered. One of my brothers is a dentist and he sees rampant and serious metabolic outcome evidence of poor breathing on a daily basis. This book shows you simple techniques to assess and improve your breathing, which as you may have guessed, can be influenced by your lifestyle factors.FINE RECIPE-Here's a super simple, refreshing summer salad with an Asian flair:* Use a veggie peeler to peel a cucumber, preferably organic.* Cut into fourths length-wise.* Chop into small pieces.* Place in a pretty bowl and toss with sesame oil and salt to taste. You can also add some soy sauce — just make sure it's traditionally fermented.* Enjoy.If you haven't yet bought the book, consider doing so on Amazon or my own website for complimentary shipping of a signed copy.

How can Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) help people with type 2 diabetes feel more empowered and in control of their health? Exploring compelling new research presented at the Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD) conference is host Cher Pastore, MS, RD, CDCES, BC-ADM, and guest Sim Singh, Senior Director of Behavioral and Translational Science at Dexcom. Together, they unpack findings from a 30-day study of Dexcom G7 use in people with type 2 diabetes, including those not on insulin. The results show significant improvements in glucose tracking, behavioral shifts like better nutrition and increased physical activity, and enhanced metabolic health and confidence - especially among CGM-naive users. Sim also shares insights from a Canadian trial and discusses how CGM is transforming diabetes education, not only for patients but for endocrinologists and primary care providers as well. Whether it's supporting blood sugar monitoring, enabling personalized diabetes treatment, or simply helping people better understand their glucose patterns, this conversation highlights how CGM and biosensor technology are reshaping diabetes management - for people with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and even prediabetes.

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX A world-first human trial of a drug designed to treat the underlying cause of type 1 diabetes has begun in Australia. University of Queensland researcher Ranjeny Thomas said the experimental drug — dubbed ASITI-201 — was designed to retrain the immune system so it no longer attacks the insulin-producing pancreatic cells, known as beta cells. The drug, given as an injection under the skin, combines fragments of a protein found in the beta cells of people with type 1 diabetes and vitamin D to calm the immune response. She said if effective, the drug would initially be given to patients with type 1 diabetes as soon as possible after diagnosis to preserve remaining pancreatic cells and reduce the amount of insulin needed. But eventually, if screening programs can be developed to pick up people at risk of developing type 1 diabetes, it may be possible to "prevent the progression of the disease altogether". The first in-human trial of 36 participants will test the safety of the drug, but blood tests will also determine the impact of the therapy on a patient's immune system and glucose tolerance. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04-29/type-1-diabetes-drug-trial-auto-immune-disease-science/105223022 XX   Diabetes deaths in the U.S. have fallen to some of the lowest rates in years, according to new preliminary figures published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, reversing a surge in mortality that was seen during the COVID-19 pandemic.   There were 26.4 deaths per 100,000 people from diabetes, according to early death certificate data for the third quarter of 2024 published this month by the CDC's National Center for Health Statistics.   Death rates from diabetes peaked in 2021, according to CDC figures, at 31.1 deaths per 100,000 people for that year. Diabetes was the eighth leading cause of death in 2021. The CDC says the link between COVID-19 and diabetes may be to blame for that increase.   "Data show an increase in mortality rates for all people during the COVID-19 pandemic, and research shows that people with underlying conditions, including diabetes, are more likely to become very sick from COVID-19 and have a higher risk of hospitalization and death," Christopher Holliday, head of the CDC's Division of Diabetes Translation, told CBS News in a statement.   Holliday added that research shows the pandemic may also have made it harder for Americans to properly manage the disease, ranging from interruptions to physical activity to disruptions to routine medical care diagnosing and treating the disease.   https://www.cbsnews.com/news/diabetes-deaths-lowest-levels-years-early-cdc-figures/ XX Big news for the Eversense CGM – they have their first pump partner. Sequel Med Tech says the twist pump will integrate with Senseonics Eversense 365 continuous glucose monitor (CGM). This collaboration would make twiist the first AID system compatible with Eversense 365, the world's first and only one-year CGM. Sequel and Senseonics say they have already started their work to integrate the latest-generation, 365-day implantable sensor with twiist. They expect to make the integrated offering available in the third quarter of this year. This marks the second CGM integration for Sequel, which partnered with Abbott and its FreeStyle Libre platform earlier this year. This week we also got a peek at the packaging and delivery of the twist as the first people posted about wearing it. We'll follow up and learn more about this newest insulin pump in the us. Senseonics, meanwhile, brought the first year-long CGM to market last year, launching Eversense 365 with its global distribution partner, Ascensia Diabetes Care, in October 2024. The system also received clearance as an integrated CGM (iCGM) system, meaning it can work with compatible medical devices. Those include insulin pumps as part of automated insulin delivery systems. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/sequel-senseonics-integrate-cgm-insulin-pump/ XX Medtronic has announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the Simplera Sync sensor for use with the MiniMed 780G system. With this approval, the MiniMed 780G system now offers more flexibility for users of the company's most advanced insulin delivery system featuring Meal Detection technology with both the Guardian 4 sensor and Simplera Sync sensor.   The Simplera Sync is a disposable, all-in-one sensor that requires no fingersticks with SmartGuard or overtape and features a simple, two-step insertion process. It is the company's newest addition to its CGM portfolio, which expands options and provides greater flexibility for users.   The MiniMed 780G system's adaptive algorithm automatically anticipates, adjusts, and corrects glucose levels every 5 minutes, 24/7 – working around the clock so users can focus on what matters. It's the only system featuring Meal Detection technology, which detects rising sugar levels and delivers more insulin as needed to help users keep glucose levels in range more often – even when users occasionally forget to dose insulin for snacks or meals or underestimate their carbs.   The system uses a “treat to target” approach and flexible glucose targets as low as 100 mg/dL, which, combined with its adaptive algorithm allows it to more closely mirror the glucose levels of someone not living with diabetes.   Real-world data of the system shows global users consistently achieve time in range above international targets of 70% when using optimal settings (active insulin time of two hours and 100 mg/dL target glucose). It is also the only system that works with the world's only infusion set that lasts up to 7 days so that users only have to change their infusion set once per week and can experience 96% fewer injections compared to multiple daily injections.   “We're committed to driving innovation that makes life easier for those living with diabetes so they can forget about their diabetes as much as possible throughout the day,” said Que Dallara, EVP and president of Medtronic Diabetes. “Our MiniMed 780G system delivers advanced diabetes technology for so many around the world, and we're excited to continue evolving this experience with expanded CGM options —including our Simplera Sync sensor, which we look forward to bringing to people living with diabetes in the U.S.”   A limited launch of the Simplera Sync sensor will begin in the U.S. in the fall of 2025. Today, the MiniMed 780G system can be used with the Guardian 4 sensor.   Like this:https://med-techinsights.com/2025/04/29/simplera-sync-sensor-for-minimed-780g-now-fda-approved/ XX Front office changes at Insulet.. The former head of Johnson & Johnson's worldwide medtech business, Ashley McEvoy will take over as president and CEO from Jim Hollingshead, who has led Insulet since 2022. In its announcement of the leadership change, Insulet said that Hollingshead and the company mutually agreed to part ways, effective immediately. McEvoy served as worldwide medtech chairman at J&J from 2018 until her departure in late 2023, the culmination of nearly 30 years at the company and several executive roles—including president of its Ethicon division and group chairman of vision and diabetes care. Since then, she has also served as a board member at Procter & Gamble. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/insulet-taps-former-jj-medtech-head-ashley-mcevoy-be-ceo XX New free mobile game launched this week to make type 1 diabetes onboarding faster easier and less overwhelming. It's called Level One.. created by Level Ex (Powered by Relevate Health), the studio behind award-winning medical games for medical professionals. Level Ex CEO Sam Glassenberg created the game after a – quote  - brutal onboarding experience when his daughter was diagnosed five years ago He says  It took a year to understand how to manage this disease. So we fixed it. We built a game that can train your brain to do it in a matter of hours." The game is launching in partnership with leading diabetes organizations Beyond Type 1 and Breakthrough T1D Play, who are integrating Level One into their outreach and educational campaigns to support newly diagnosed families worldwide.

As the most abundant protein in the human body, collagen provides essential structure and support to nearly all tissues and organs.   Now, researchers at Carnegie Mellon's Feinberg Lab have made a major breakthrough using their novel Freeform Reversible Embedding of Suspended Hydrogels (FRESH) 3D bioprinting technique. This method enables the precise printing of soft, living cells and tissues. Leveraging this technology, the team successfully created the first-ever microphysiologic system, also known as a tissue model, constructed entirely from collagen. This advancement opens new possibilities for studying disease and engineering tissue therapies, including potential treatments for conditions like Type 1 diabetes.   Traditionally, small-scale models of human tissue, referred to as microfluidics, organ-on-chip devices, or microphysiologic systems, have been fabricated using synthetic materials such as silicone rubber or plastics. These materials were necessary due to limitations in earlier manufacturing techniques. However, because they are not biologically native, they fail to fully replicate natural tissue environments, restricting their effectiveness in biomedical research and therapeutic development.   “Now, we can build microfluidic systems in the Petri dish entirely out of collagen, cells, and other proteins, with unprecedented structural resolution and fidelity,” explained Adam Feinberg, a professor of biomedical engineering and materials science & engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. “Most importantly, these models are fully biologic, which means cells function better.”   Building Complex Tissues with FRESH Bioprinting In new research published in Science Advances, the group demonstrates the use of this FRESH bioprinting advancement, building more complex vascularized tissues out of fully biologic materials, to create a pancreatic-like tissue that could potentially be used in the future to treat Type 1 diabetes. This advancement in FRESH bioprinting builds on the team's earlier work published in Science, by improving the resolution and quality to create fluidic channels that are like blood vessels down to about 100-micron diameter.   “There were several key technical developments to the FRESH printing technology that enabled this work,” described Daniel Shiwarski, assistant professor of bioengineering at the University of Pittsburgh and prior postdoctoral fellow in the Feinberg lab. “By implementing a single-step bioprinting fabrication process, we manufactured collagen-based perfusable CHIPS in a wide range of designs that exceed the resolution and printed fidelity of any other known bioprinting approach to date. Further, when combined with multi-material 3D bioprinting of ECM proteins, growth factors, and cell-laden bioinks and integration into a custom bioreactor platform, we were able to create a centimeter-scale pancreatic-like tissue construct capable of producing glucose-stimulated insulin release exceeding current organoid based approaches.” https://scitechdaily.com/scientists-bioprint-living-tissues-that-could-revolutionize-diabetes-treatment/ XX Another study showing the blood sugar benefit of walking after a meal. Skeletal muscle plays a central role in glucose uptake. Exercise stimulates glucose transport into muscle cells through insulin-independent pathways, notably through the action of glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT-4), which is responsible for transporting glucose from blood to skeletal muscles.4 This means that even without a robust insulin response, physical activity can facilitate glucose clearance from the bloodstream. These effects also occur without requiring high-intensity exercise, making postprandial walking accessible to a broad range of individuals, including those with limited exercise tolerance. multiple studies show that starting activity within 30 minutes after a meal is optimal. https://www.news-medical.net/health/Walking-After-Meals-Small-Habit-Big-Metabolic-Gains.aspx XX Dexcom brings back Dexcom U for a 4th years. This is a name, image and license program for college athletes with diabetes and includes a nationwide open call for passionate and inspiring college athletes to join its roster. Now through May 23, athletes, coaches, friends and family members can nominate candidates through an online submission.

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX Our top story this week: Dexcom Dive Brief: A warning letter posted Tuesday by the Food and Drug Administration revealed quality control issues with Dexcom's continuous glucose monitors. The FDA raised concerns with a design change to a component used in the resistance layer of Dexcom's sensors. The sensors with the new component were less accurate than those with the original component, according to the warning letter. Dexcom has ceased distribution of G7 sensors with the component, but the company's response did not address affected G6 sensors. J.P. Morgan analyst Robbie Marcus wrote in a research note Tuesday that the letter concerns a chemical compound that the sensor wire is dipped in. Dexcom began producing the compound internally to add redundancy to its supply chain.   Dive Insight: Dexcom Chief Operating Officer Jake Leach said in an interview with MedTech Dive last week that the company does not expect the warning letter to affect future product approvals, including a 15-day version of its G7 CGM, and there's no need yet to recall products. Dexcom has submitted the device to the FDA and anticipates a launch in the second half of the year.   Marcus, after speaking to company leadership and a quality control expert, wrote that many of the issues outlined in the letter could be addressed quickly. He added that the warning letter could explain minor delays in approval to the 15-day sensor, but Dexcom is still within the 90-day window for a 510(k) submission.   “While there's always a risk this could impede future product approvals,” Marcus wrote, “we do not expect this to materially delay the 15 day G7 sensor approval.”   The warning letter followed an FDA inspection last year of Dexcom's facilities in San Diego and Mesa, Arizona. Marcus wrote that after the FDA requested additional information and a separate 510(k), Dexcom stopped in-sourcing the compound and reverted back to the external supplier.   Dexcom's devices were misbranded because the company did not submit a premarket notification to the FDA before making major changes to the sensors, according to the warning letter. The sensors with the changed coating “cause higher risks for users who rely on the sensors to dose insulin or make other diabetes treatment decisions,” the letter said.     The FDA raised other concerns in the warning letter, including procedures to monitor the glucose and acetaminophen concentrations used in testing of the G6 and G7 CGMs. The FDA also cited problems with Dexcom's handling last year of a deficiency in its G6 sensors with dissolved oxygen content values, a key input for measuring blood glucose levels. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/dexcom-warning-letter-cgm-coating-change/743597/ XX Lots of studies and info out of the recent ATTD conference. One highlight that has been sort of under the radar: a Dutch company has been using a Bihormonal fully closed-loop system for the treatment of type 1 diabetes in the real world. This is a company called Inreda (in-RAY-duh). The Inreda AP® is an automatic system (closed loop) and independently regulates the blood glucose level by administering insulin and glucagon. The AP5 is certified in Europe and is being used in multiple studies and projects. The AP®6 is currently under development. https://www.inredadiabetic.nl/en/discover-the-ap/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38443309/ XX Let's talk about time in tight range. If you follow me and diabetes connections on social, you likely saw a video I made about this – it blew up last week. If not.. time in range has been a metric for a short while now.. in 2019 there was a consensus report advising a goal of 70% of time in the 70-180 mg/dL range for most people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D), with modifications for certain subgroups. Recently we've been hearing more about 70-140 mg/dL — for longer periods as “time in tight range (TiTR).” At ATTD there was more talk about calling that range TING, or “time in normal glycemia.     There's a great writeup that I'll link up from the great Miriam Tucker on Medscape about a debate that happened at ATTD. On March 22, 2025, two endocrinologists debated this question at the Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD) 2025. Anders L. Carlson, MD, medical director of the International Diabetes Center (IDC), Minneapolis, took the positive side, while Jeremy Pettus, MD, assistant professor of medicine at the University of California San Diego, who lives with T1D himself, argued that it's too soon.   https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/should-time-tight-range-be-primary-diabetes-goal-2025a100073q?form=fpf   XX Sequel Med Tech announces its twist pump will be firs paired with Abbott's FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus. The twist has FDA approval for ages 6 and up and is set to begin its commercial launch by the end of June. The pump—designed by inventor Dean Kamen's Deka Research & Development—also incorporates the FDA-cleared Tidepool Loop software program, to record CGM blood sugar readings, make predictions based on trends and adjust its background insulin levels accordingly. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/sequel-med-tech-connects-twiist-insulin-pump-abbotts-cgm-ahead-market-debut XX Dexcom's longer-lasting CGM sensor looks promising, based on study results presented at the conference. The trial showed that the new 15-day G7 system is slightly more accurate than the current G7. The accuracy of CGM can be measured using MARD (mean absolute relative difference), which shows the average amount a CGM sensor varies from your actual glucose levels (a lower number is better).  The 15-day G7 has a MARD value of 8.0%, about the same as the Abbott Freestyle Libre 3. The Dexcom G7 15 Day is awaiting FDA approval and is not yet available in the U.S.   XX Little bit of news from Modular Medical.. they plan to submit their patch pump to the FDA late summer or fall of this year. The MODD1 product, a 90-day patch pump, features new microfluidics technology to allow for the low-cost pumping of insulin. Its new intuitive design makes the product simple to use and easier to prescribe. It has a reservoir size of 300 units/3mL. Users can monitor the pump activity with their cell phone and do not require an external controller. The pump uses a provided, single-use, disposable battery. Modular Medical picked up FDA clearance for MODD1 in September. The company also raised $8 million to end 2024. Its founder, Paul DiPerna, previously founded leading insulin pump maker Tandem Diabetes Care. DiPerna invented and designed Tandem's t:slim pump. By developing its patented insulin delivery technologies, the company hopes to improve access to glycemic control. Its founder, Paul DiPerna, previously founded leading insulin pump maker Tandem Diabetes Care. DiPerna invented and designed Tandem's t:slim pump. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/modular-medical-announces-12m-private-placement/ XX More from attd – type 2 news? https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/biggest-diabetes-tech-news-attd-2025/ XX Another study that says people with type 1 who use a GLP-1 medication get better outcomes. In this study, those who use GLP-1 with insulin are 55% less likely to have a hyperglycemia-related ED visit, 26% less likely to have an amputation-related visit, and 29% less likely to have a diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA)-related ED visit in the following year compared to those on insulin alone. Although they are not approved for T1D, some patients may receive them off-label or for weight control. Pretty big study for an off label drug: compared 7,010 adult patients with T1D who were prescribed GLP-1s and insulin to 304,422 adult patients with T1D who were on insulin alone.  It is important to note that the rates of new diabetic complications in one year for both groups were around 1%, indicating that these are uncommon outcomes regardless of medication use. https://www.epicresearch.org/articles/some-diabetic-complications-less-likely-among-type-1-diabetics-on-glp-1s   XX Early research here but exposure to antibiotics during a key developmental window in infancy may stunt the growth of insulin-producing cells in the pancreas and boost risk of diabetes later in life The study, is published this month in the journal Science, it's a study in mice. These researchers are working off the idea that when while identical twins share DNA that predisposes them to Type 1 diabetes, only one twin usually gets the disease. She explained that human babies are born with a small amount of pancreatic “beta cells,” the only cells in the body that produce insulin.   But some time in a baby's first year, a once-in-a-lifetime surge in beta cell growth occurs.   “If, for whatever reason, we don't undergo this event of expansion and proliferation, that can be a cause of diabetes,” Hill said.   They found that when they gave broad-spectrum antibiotics to mice during a specific window (the human equivalent of about 7 to 12 months of life), the mice developed fewer insulin producing cells, higher blood sugar levels, lower insulin levels and generally worse metabolic function in adulthood.   in other experiments, the scientists gave specific microbes to mice, and found that several they increased their production of beta cells and boosted insulin levels in the blood. When male mice that were genetically predisposed to Type 1 diabetes were colonized with the fungus in infancy, they developed diabetes less than 15% of the time. Males that didn't receive the fungus got diabetes 90% of the time. Even more promising, when researchers gave the fungus to adult mice whose insulin-producing cells had been killed off, those cells regenerated. Hill stresses that she is not “anti-antibiotics.” But she does imagine a day when doctors could give microbe-based drugs or supplements alongside antibiotics to replace the metabolism-supporting bugs they inadvertently kill.   .   “Historically we have interpreted germs as something we want to avoid, but we probably have way more beneficial microbes than pathogens,” she said. “By harnessing their power, we can do a lot to benefit human health.”     https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1078112 XX Future watch for something called BeaGL - created by researchers at the University of California Davis and UC Davis Health who were inspired by their own personal experiences with managing T1D.   BeaGL is designed to work with CGMs and has security-focused machine learning algorithms to make predictive alerts about anticipated glucose changes, which are sent to a device. In this case, a smartwatch. The end goal is for BeaGL to be completely automated to reduce the cognitive load on the patient, particularly for teens. It's still in research phase but six student with T1D have been using it for almost a year.     https://health.ucdavis.edu/news/headlines/with-ai-a-new-metabolic-watchdog-takes-diabetes-care-from-burden-to-balance/2025/02 XX Investigators are searching for a way forward after two long-term diabetes programs were terminated following the cancellation of their National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding, the result of federal allegations that study coordinator Columbia University had inappropriately handled antisemitism on campus. The programs include the three-decades-old Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) and its offshoot, the Diabetes Prevention Program Outcomes Study (DPPOS). “We are reeling,” said David Nathan, MD, a previous chair of both the DPP and the DPPOS and an original leader of the landmark Diabetes Control and Complications Trial. Nathan is also founder of the Massachusetts General Hospital Diabetes Center in Boston, one of the 30 DPPOS sites in 21 states. On March 7, the Trump administration cancelled $400 million in awards to Columbia University from various federal agencies. While Columbia University agreed on March 21 to changes in policies and procedures to respond to the Trump administration's charges, in the hopes that the funding would be restored, DPPOS Principal Investigator Jose Luchsinger, MD, told Medscape Medical News that as of press time, the study was still cancelled. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/diabetes-prevention-program-cancellation-colossal-waste-2025a100076h XX XX Type 2 diabetes may quietly alter the brain in ways that mimic early Alzheimer's. This was only an animal study – but researchers say the high comorbidity of type 2 diabetes (T2D) with psychiatric or neurodegenerative disorders points to a need for understanding what links these diseases.   https://scitechdaily.com/how-diabetes-quietly-rewires-the-brains-reward-and-memory-system/ XX Eating chili once a month when you're pregnant seems to lower the risk of developing gestational diabetes. This is a real study! While chili showed a link to lower gestational diabetes risk, dried beans and bean soup had no significant effect, even among women who ate them more frequently. Some studies suggest that diets high in beans and legumes, including the Mediterranean diet, reduce GDM risk. While studies link beans to lower diabetes risk, their specific impact on GDM remains unclear. This study analyzed data from 1,397 U.S. pregnant women who participated in the Infant Feeding Practices Study II, conducted between 2005 and 2007. Chili consumption varied significantly by race, education, household size, income, supplemental nutrition status, and region. Non-Hispanic Black mothers consumed the most (0.33 cups/week), while those with higher income and education levels consumed less. Regional differences also influenced chili intake. One possible mechanism for chili's effect is capsaicin, a bioactive compound found in chili peppers, which has been linked to metabolic benefits in other studies. However, further research is needed to confirm this potential role in GDM prevention. Dried bean and bean soup consumption had no clear association with GDM.

Episode Summary: When it comes to fat loss, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to carbohydrates. In this episode, we dive into how to personalize your carbohydrate intake based on key factors such as your baseline diet, body composition, activity level, and even your unique blood sugar response. By understanding how your body processes carbs, you can fine-tune your intake for sustainable fat loss and optimal energy levels. Before we get started, grab your copy of my new Fat Loss E-Book! Here's the link. And, head over to my new YouTube channel to subscribe and turn on notifications before the new Carb Series kicks off next week.  What You'll Learn in This Episode: ✔ How to assess your baseline carbohydrate intake before making adjustments ✔ Why muscle mass and body fat percentage impact carb tolerance ✔ The role of activity level in determining your optimal carb intake ✔ How health goals (fat loss, performance, hormone balance) influence carb strategy ✔ Why food sensitivities and individual blood sugar responses matter ✔ Practical strategies for tracking and adjusting your carb intake Key Factors to Consider When Personalizing Carb Intake 1. Your Baseline – Where Are You Starting? Before making changes, assess your current carbohydrate intake. Track what you eat for a few days and consider factors like: Blood sugar response (using a glucometer or continuous glucose monitor) Insulin sensitivity (fasting glucose, HbA1c levels) Energy levels and hunger cues

In this episode of the Primal Potential Podcast, we're diving into three powerful but simple strategies to help you optimize your blood sugar, improve your insulin sensitivity, and increase your energy levels. These are real-world, easy-to-implement hacks that go beyond the usual “eat less sugar” advice. Before we get started, grab your copy of my new Fat Loss E-Book! Here's the link. And, head over to my new YouTube channel to subscribe and turn on notifications before the new Carb Series kicks off next week.  Hack #1: Get Sunlight First Thing in the Morning ☀️ Did you know that getting direct sunlight within the first hour of waking helps reset your circadian rhythm, which plays a major role in blood sugar regulation and insulin sensitivity? Pairing this with light movement (like a 10-minute walk or some gentle stretching) can improve how efficiently your body uses glucose before breakfast. What the Science Says: On average, exposure to sunlight improved insulin sensitivity by 18.75%. Median improvement was 18%, meaning half of people experienced even greater benefits. Range of effects: Sunlight exposure improved insulin function by 15-22%. Glucose tolerance: Participants who got more sunlight saw a 12-16% improvement in how well their bodies processed carbohydrates.

He said he's had an epiphany about his activity level and poor knees. Charles is diabetic and wears a CGM and NSNG® has helped him recalibrate his glucose. Mark, the second caller, and Vinnie discuss hiking the Appalachian Trail and the Santiago Trail in Spain. (39:00) They are interesting hikes, and you develop relationships because of the sense of community.
