Spotlight on: Continuous Glucose Meters (CGMs)

These are sensors worn on the arm for 2 weeks; they send automatic blood sugar updates to your smartphone. Really useful for diabetics; funded for some (Type 1 diabetics) and a great tool for pre-diabetics and non-diabetics. Great personalised feedback on the effect that different foods and drinks have on your blood sugar levels.
