running is a great way to explore a new city, but you may get lost and run extra miles you didnβt plan for π
Your A1c, continuous glucose readings, and fasting blood sugar all have their own strengths and limitations.β
β
π©Έ A1c gives us the big-picture, long-term average but can vary with conditions that affect your red blood cells.β
π©Έ CGM readings gives us your day-to-day patterns in relation to food intake and activity. β
π©Έ Fasting blood glucose gives us a single snapshot but can be easily affected by temporary factors.β
β
One test is not necessarily better than the other, but when we interpret them together, we can get a more holistic picture of your metabolic health!β
β
Were you surprised that some conditions are associated with falsely increased/decreased A1c?β
