Glucose Monitoring
Glucose monitoring is the process of measuring the level of glucose (sugar) in the blood. This is important for individuals with conditions like diabetes, as it helps them manage their blood sugar levels effectively. Monitoring can be done using various devices, including glucometers and continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), which provide real-time data.
Regular glucose monitoring allows individuals to understand how their diet, exercise, and medications affect their blood sugar levels. By keeping track of these levels, they can make informed decisions to maintain their health and prevent complications associated with high or low blood sugar.
