## Resource

Continuous glucose monitors were once the exclusive domain of the insulin-dependent diabetic. But in 2026, a wave of consumer-facing CGM companies is marketing them to biohackers, gym-goers, and the simply curious. In this episode, Lucas and Luna look at the numbers behind the shift — from clinical utility to lifestyle gadget. They break down the promise of metabolic insight, the skepticism from the medical establishment, and the thin line between health optimization and health anxiety. Featuring a closer look at the startup Nutrisense, which aims to build a CGM-based nutrition coaching subscription, and the FDA's evolving stance on over-the-counter wearable sensors. Is this the blood-pressure-cuff moment for glucose, or the wellness industry's next overhyped panel? #ContinuousGlucoseMonitor #CGM #Nutrisense #WearableTech #DigitalHealth #MetabolicHealth #Biohacking #Wellness #GlucoseMonitoring #FDA #OverTheCounter #HealthTech #BloodSugar #Nutrition #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Business #Technology Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
