The CGMs

Your continuous glucose monitor (CGM) is a small sensor that sticks to the skin and measures your blood glucose in real-time.

The app

Using data collected from your CGM, the Levels app studies your diet and activity choices to suggest changes to improve your health.

The insights

The Levels app provides you with information like glucose spike detection, meal scores and other personalized data that help you maintain your metabolic health.

What is a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM)?

Levels provides real-time feedback on how your diet and lifestyle choices impact your metabolic health through biosensors like continuous glucose monitors.

What is a CGM?

A continuous glucose monitor is a plastic disc (about the size of two quarters stacked together) that sticks to the skin. It sends glucose data continuously (at least every 5 minutes) to a smartphone or handheld device, where the user can see it on a graph or chart.

Glycemic variability

This describes the “spikiness” of your glucose curve. Ideally, we want glucose to remain stable and rise only slightly after meals. Extreme glucose variability has been linked to heart disease, diabetes, and metabolic dysfunction. High levels of variability can also indicate that you’re becoming insulin resistant—your body is unable to use insulin efficiently to 

control glucose.

What is a Continuous
Glucose Monitor (CGM)?

Levels provides real-time feedback on how your diet and lifestyle choices impact your metabolic health through biosensors like continuous glucose monitors.

The benefit of a continuous glucose monitor is that it provides a more granular, real-time look at your blood sugar than alternative methods such as using a glucometer, which reads glucose from a drop of blood, or annual glucose tests at your doctor, such as fasting plasma glucose
or HbA1c.

Why use a CGM?

The filament reads from just under your skin and is around 5mm long and 0.4mm wide (about as thick as
dental floss).

Glycemic variability

This describes the “spikiness” of your glucose curve. Ideally, we want glucose to remain stable and rise only slightly after meals. Extreme glucose variability has been linked to heart disease, diabetes, and metabolic dysfunction. High levels of variability can also indicate that you’re becoming insulin resistant—your body is unable to use insulin efficiently to control glucose.

Metabolic flexibility and how to improve it

Our body has two primary sources of fuel: glucose and fat. Burning fat produces ketones, which have many health benefits. If our body is burning glucose, it’s not burning fat (in fact, insulin, which is produced when our blood sugar is high, blocks fat burning). Metabolic flexibility refers to how efficiently your body can switch between these fuel sources.

Reaction to individual foods

Our blood-sugar reactions to foods are highly individual. While your blood sugar may spike from a cookie but not from a banana, someone else may have the opposite reaction. Our glucose reactions are also affected by our microbiome, genes, overall fitness, sleep status, stress, and what else we’ve eaten recently.

Early detection of metabolic
dysfunction and insulin resistance

We can begin to develop insulin resistance more than 10 years before it shows up in our fasting blood sugar test at the doctor. A CGM can help us see our total post-meal blood sugar response, giving us more insight into how our body handles a glucose load. And the earlier we catch metabolic impairment, the easier it is to arrest its development before it reaches prediabetes or diabetes.

Frequently asked questions

Depending on your choice of CGM you may need a prescription, but don't worry, we can take care of that for you. We'll ask you a few questions about your health, and a licensed physician will review your information to check you are eligible. If you’re approved, we'll handle your prescription and ship your CGM within 3-5 business days.
