  • Episode 56. My CKM/ CGM experiment for 2 weeks
    Oct 28 2024

    Welcome to this episode of Prescribing Lifestyle where I dive into my two-week journey with both a continuous ketone meter (CKM) and a continuous glucose meter (CGM). I was contacted by CBO, a company that produces these meters, to trial their products and help promote them.

    Key Points Covered:

    1. Initial Setup and Daily Use:
      • I share how I set up both devices using the provided applicators, highlighting the ease of installation and the robust adherence of the CKM compared to the CGM.
      • I discuss the resilience of both devices during my regular activities like running, weight lifting, and visits to the sauna.
    2. Technical Insights and Device Comparison:
      • I delve into the functionality of both meters, particularly their performance under different conditions, such as during outdoor runs and in the sauna.
      • I provide comparisons between the CKM and CGM, focusing on discrepancies in readings between interstitial fluid and blood measurements.
    3. Dietary Impact on Ketone Levels:
      • I observe how various activities and meal compositions influenced my ketone levels throughout the day, with specific insights on how exercise and protein-rich meals affect these readings.
    4. Overall Assessment and Practical Advice:
      • I evaluate the practical benefits and limitations of using continuous monitoring devices for those on ketogenic diets or interested in biohacking their health.
      • I offer advice on how to interpret ketone data and integrate these devices into one's health-focused lifestyle.
