It is always so refreshing to hear Peter being so genuine, authentic & honest. Be it „biased“, unsure or not knowing about it. Who would have thought that he is not disciplined all the time. 😉 And I truly appreciate his open minded approach to science being so passionate about certain things. Thank you for releasing these clips & lectures on youtube!

Excellent on several levels. I've experienced the same thing regarding my robot discipline - has really dropped the last few years. This is such an important topic - love the details. Now ill check for a more recent video on this from Peter.

@mohitbansal5130 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing the information. I use the Ambrosia Blucon with Libre, It helps me to get constant readings on my Apple Watch and iPhone, the alarms help me at night. It is a much more reliable and accurate cgm with a low cost. I loved!

@Janarae18 4 года назад

I love the robot analogy. I used to sort of be the same way. I had a lot of trauma in my life this past year and it really messed with my will power. I am still getting better but not 100 percent.

@Guitarlvr01 3 года назад

Fascinating to hear of his willpower decay. I experienced the same issue after leaving the Military. I was insanely fit during service and the moment no one was requiring it of me anymore, I went crazy in a way I never thought I would, and I never got back on track. Ordered my CGM a few days ago before even hearing this talk 😆

@mayrakennedy6200 2 года назад

great video. I think the consumer has to take action in terms of their health and at one point we should all track what the body does w the foods we eat. Thanks for the video ✅

@lisaandrew4421 2 года назад

Nice video, I diagnosed with T1 and use the FreeStyle Libre sensor with Blucon transmitter, I track blood glucose readings on watch and phone constantly and the phone beeps at night when the glucose is out of range.

@jsmith5764 2 года назад

I understand the compulsion to achieve a good result since it keeps existential anxiety at bay temporarily. It's just a cover to tell ourselves we are in control. The reality is we are always already nothing.

@abejaamarilla4961 4 года назад

Pues no tengo mucho dinero para pagar la membresia pero no me pierdo su information en su podcast. I have been listening since 2015. I appreciate your knowledge and my family and I, we applied it every day. Thanks.

@pickledrick5158 3 года назад

As a type 1 diabetic I also have a HbA1c of 4.5 to 4.8%. I don't even use a CGM, only blood sugar tests and low carb diets. HbA1c is accurate for people who have a a narrow range, people with roller coaster BG levels often have misleading results.

@brawndothethirstmutilator9848 2 месяца назад

This is a good point. I have a history of hypoglycemia so I’m currently using a cgm to check my pattern before deciding to check A1c.

@76MUTiger Год назад

EXACTLY. My CGM creates data to which I am accountable. There is nowhere to hide. To the extent I was in denial about the consequences of my little indulgences, I got yanked out of denial by the data. This means that when I want to cheat, I KNOW I'm going to see the spike. I just don't want to HAVE a spike! So I behave well almost all the time.

@johannestheodorusblignaut9264 9 месяцев назад

what does the ambulatory glucose profile means on the cgm .It states suggested target should be< 36% mine is 16.8 %

@theminesweeper1 Год назад

Can you test blood pressure on same side glucose monitor is on?

@billytheweasel 2 года назад

My wife's cancer radiation oncologist said a CGM is useless because glucose doesn't cause tumors to grow. I even asked about the Warburg effect from 1931 that proved glucose DOES fuel tumor growth. It Figures, they had a candy dish on their reception counter...

@ernencho84 10 месяцев назад

I come from the future and I'm wearing cgm withoug having diabetes, freestyle 3, but it's not very accurate. Still useful

@flolou8496 Год назад

I wonder how Dr Attias views have evolved on the importance of CGM's in the past 3 years, ? I don't think he has any recent videos on the topic,

@felipearbustopotd Год назад

By empowering the individual to proactively look after themselves by what they eat via the use of a CGM will not only improve the health of the individual, but will also lessen the impact on what governments spend on health care. I conclude with this... If there is money to be made from CGM - it will eventually flood the mass market.

@supernova5107 3 года назад

Why can't the FDA or manufacturer just put a liability clause on the cgm's so the average healthy person can utilize the technology for Better Health?

@gdaaps 3 месяца назад

what are the cgm available in europe now?

@korakatar7921 Год назад

Now if only the CGM sensor could sense Ketones too😁

@running.lawyer Год назад

It's going to be in Abbott's production by 2023.

@joeroganpodfantasy42 11 месяцев назад

I need to know what happened to him in 2015 breakup loss of family ? Depression suicide ?

@rogersmit4193 2 года назад

Since we know that glucose does not track very consistently with insulin thus, Insulin resistence largely goes unnoticed , during many years of hyperinsulin progression , even HbA1c stays normal along the way into gradual cellular IR symptoms ; then why oh why oh my is there so much emphasis on CGMing instead of developing "Constant Insulin Monitoring "! For a mechanic analogy , I have 2 questions , #1 Why keep checking for the belt to become worn out and not check the bearing oil reservoir first off the sticking pulley whose friction would eventually wear out the belt . If this belt was a crucial valve timing belt on a piston/valve interference engine - you would be screwed out of the competition for good by monitoring the last priority indication instead of the first priority indicator . #2 . Why aren't doctors first required to pass a basic engineering diagnostics for pre-practice on the principles and less practice on the protocols. ?

@TheFarmersWife1 2 года назад

I’m so tired of trying to convince a dr that I need one of these! I’ve been keto for over a year and dropped 115 lbs. but something is going on that I don’t understand. I’m well below 10 gm of carbs daily and down to one meal a day. Yet I get dry mouth , shakeup, sweaty, yacht after eating that meal. How can I find out what is going on? Please help!

@inharmsway1965 Год назад

Have you tried fasting for at least 24 hours? It could be that you still need to take steps to lower your resting insulin levels.

@Levelupwithleavitt 10 дней назад

Has he changed his mind on A1C because in all his recent talks he says how important that number is..

@johnmarsili4430 Год назад

How can I get a CGM without a prescription from my doctor? I’m in the US ? I would like to do as a preventative:-)

@kimberlee440 Год назад

Just ask. My GP prescribed it, and I'm not diabetic.

@MsQ275 5 месяцев назад

I fired two doctors when the didn't prescribe them, finally on the third, I interviewed her ahead of the appointment to make sure she would do what I told her to do.... now I have a prescription and incredibly insights

@ANDREWGEN_ 4 месяца назад

4:39 - welp. FDA just approved Stelo

@wanderingsoul2909 Год назад

Even 3 year later, Trying to get a CGM without Dr Prescription is a NO GO for non-diabetics ( insurance won't cover it ). Companies such as Signos, Nutrisense, and AgelessRx can provide the "Dr Prescription" online and supply the CGM and sensors on a subscription basis. But it's still expensive , about $250 - $300 per month. Does anyone have other alternatives such as going offshore ? Thanks

@chrisE815 Год назад

Exactly!

@kimberlee440 Год назад

I have United Healthcare, and they cover it. I pay $75/mo for two sensors. I am not diabetic.

@danielanaranjo7309 11 месяцев назад

Signos ! That how I got mine and I love it I paid 570 for 3 months

@raquelt7723 11 месяцев назад

Ask a doctor to prescribe. I just got it for 75 a month. My doctor was happy to prescribe.

@wanderingsoul2909 11 месяцев назад

@@raquelt7723 Believe it or not in some places ( Las Vegas ), the "Standard of Care" says that unless you have diabetes and are on insulin then you DON'T NEED A CGM. Insurance won't cover it so you pay out of pocket. $75 is a very good price. How ?

@jaindaugh509 4 месяца назад

This video is now 5 years old. but I would like to comment on CGMs in general. I am wearing a G7 mainly so that I correlate what I eat with glucose response. Unfortunately the data on the CGM is more to inform about dosing insulin. I am pre-prediabetic and would like to prevent myself from going down that path. IF the data was enriched by being able to note food eaten (date/time/food) with that graphed in say a color that would reflect the food(meal), one could look at a 24 hr. report and relate food with (any) spikes. In that way the CGM would not be (only) about insulin dosing but more for personal understanding of how one's body reacts to foods eaten.

@brawndothethirstmutilator9848 2 месяца назад

The CGM I’m using (Libre 3) allows food and exercise to be logged as notes right onto the daily blood glucose graph.

@supernova5107 3 года назад

I could easily see me being like Peter if I ever had a CGM because I go absolutely ape shit if I have a high blood sugar after I eat with a blood stick monitor.

@qigong1001 Год назад

He's making too big a deal of glucose variation. Here is an article titled "Clinical Implications of Glucose Variability: Chronic Complications of Diabetes". Its in the Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism.

@ak81 9 месяцев назад

Mostly you end up eating the same hard diet to loose weight whether you wear one or not

@bekithomson5200 Год назад

Is his monitor really $299 a month?

@qigong1001 Год назад

Peter is OCD and watching his numbers go up and down like a stock day trader. Yeah, I was curious myself. Its B.S. with the cost. And the cheaper ones, people complain about inaccuracies and failed connections, etc. H1Ac is still better. The goal is to monitor trends. So, even if your H1Ac values don't align with the public, doesn't matter. Its not useless. You can see if YOUR values go up and down over the years. Right now, feels like its not a great investment, even if its for self-control reasons. I'd do it for two weeks, testing for foods if it was around $100, and accurate. The $100 device/service right now don't seem accurate and data is sparse.

@4legends212 Год назад

In principle I agree with him but almost all my relatives live over 80 after eating most “ unhealthy food” along with most sugary desserts all their life and none of them gone before 80 , have no diabetic or cancer in whole family , it’s stress , and especially stress come with capitalist life style , calculated & isolated life style , lack of complete family life , etc etc which get you much earlier than diabetes

@michaelhimes8778 Год назад

Both of my grandmothers lived into their mid 90s but they were riddled with health problems from their 70s. They had good genes but bad habits. That’s why Peter talks about healthspan as opposed to just lifespan.

@rocko100able 3 месяца назад

Why didn't you make any current videos, this one's 4 years old, how is this video irrelevant, there sure is a lot of people on RU-vid sending out videos that are years old, which makes them worthless, unless it's just about making money on RU-vid.

@xtinestevens4836 4 месяца назад

That was sexy.

@hmiller9707 Год назад

I wonder how a patient could go rogue treating their diabetes with insulin if CGMs were available OTC; insulin is a only available by prescription. This argument for restricting CGMs makes less than no sense.
