With co-host Dr. William Dixon, we dissect the optimal glucose numbers for individuals living with and without diabetes. We underline the importance of maintaining a stable fasting glucose baseline and the significant role lifestyle changes play in managing this disease.

We also explore the side effects of medications like GLP-1 agonists and the significance of sustaining the effects of medication through lasting lifestyle changes. We'll explore the benefits of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) for non-insulin users and the potential of personalized medicine. Join us as we navigate the complexities of type 2 diabetes, discussing strategies for managing this prevalent disease and the role of tools like Signos in empowering patients, and much more!
