Kara Collier is a registered dietician who specializes in continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). CGM is a wearable device that measures glucose levels throughout the day to evaluate your body’s response to dietary changes, stress, and exercise. Knowing this information can help you make personalized dietary and lifestyle changes to prevent metabolic dysfunction down the road or improve your current health.
