Did you know that many people with type 2 diabetes do not feel their glucose fluctuations?
If you only check your glucose with an occasional finger prick, you get snapshots, but you miss the bigger picture. What happens in the hours between measurements? How does your body react to breakfast? How do stress and sleep affect your blood sugar? And why do you sometimes feel tired or hungry even though you just ate?
A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) gives you real-time insights into how food, exercise, and lifestyle impact your glucose levels. It helps you reduce glucose spikes, improve insulin sensitivity, and understand why your HbA1c remains high and how to lower it.
With a CGM, you gain control over fatigue, cravings, and fluctuations while learning how movement and nutrition stabilize your glucose.
“A CGM helps you make smarter decisions for balanced glucose and better health.”
From snapshots to full insight
Most people with type 2 diabetes check their glucose a few times a day with a finger prick. This only provides a snapshot and doesn’t show what’s happening throughout the day and night.
What you don’t see with a finger prick, but do with a CGM:
✔ What happens between measurements?
✔ How does your body react right after a meal?
✔ How long does your glucose stay elevated?
✔ Do your glucose levels drop at night without you noticing?
“Many people think their glucose is stable, but a CGM reveals significant fluctuations between finger pricks.”

Weight and Type 2 Diabetes – The Role of Insulin
In addition to improving your glucose levels, GlucoSensor also helps with weight management. Why? Because glucose spikes lead to higher insulin levels, and insulin plays a crucial role in determining whether your body stores or burns fat. When your insulin is high, your body is programmed to store fat, while a low insulin level makes it easier to burn fat.
With a CGM, you can see which foods cause insulin spikes.
✔ You’ll learn which meals support your metabolism.
✔ Fewer glucose spikes = less insulin = easier weight loss.
“Since I started using a CGM, I’ve lost 7 kilos and my HbA1c has decreased by about 20%. I finally understand how my body works!”
– Peter, 56
Conclusion: more insight = better glucose levels = better health
A GlucoSensor is not a luxury; it is a must-have for anyone with type 2 diabetes who:
✔ wants to better understand and manage their glucose levels.
✔ wants to lower their HbA1c and prevent complications.
✔ wants to experience fewer hypos and hypers.
✔ wants more control over nutrition, exercise, and insulin.
