What this test reveals
What this test reveals
A small wearable sensor placed on your arm continuously tracks your blood glucose levels 24/7, revealing how your body uniquely responds to food, exercise, sleep, and stress in real-time.
Traditional glucose testing gives you a single snapshot. CGM gives you the full movie — showing spikes, crashes, and patterns that fasting glucose and even HbA1c completely miss. Many people with 'normal' lab values discover they're riding a metabolic rollercoaster all day.
People usually reach for this kind of diagnostic when they want a clearer read on real-time glucose response to specific foods, post-meal glucose spikes and crash patterns, fasting glucose trends and dawn phenomenon, especially when symptoms or prior testing still leave blind spots.
Once results are back, you can upload them into Gabriel to connect the findings to symptoms, protocols, and next-step testing instead of leaving them as a static report.
Commonly relevant for: Weight Management Metabolic Health, Diabetes Blood Sugar, Pcos Hormonal Imbalance.
Gabriel difference
Why this becomes more useful inside Gabriel
Metabolic dysfunction is the root of most chronic disease — yet conventional medicine only checks fasting glucose once a year. CGM reveals your personal metabolic fingerprint: which foods spike you, which don't, and how your sleep and stress habits are silently driving insulin resistance. Gabriel uses your CGM data to build truly personalized nutrition protocols, not generic dietary advice.
Gabriel interprets results through a functional, root-cause lens: optimal ranges, pattern recognition across multiple diagnostics, and what the findings actually mean for action rather than just classification.
That means this test can feed directly into protocols, practitioner matching, food strategy, and follow-up testing instead of ending as a one-off PDF or lab portal result.
What to expect
What to expect from ordering to results
01
Order
Order directly through Levels Health or ask Gabriel whether there is a better path first.
02
Complete
You'll receive a small sensor (about the size of a quarter) that adheres to the back of your upper arm. A tiny filament sits just under the skin — most people barely feel it.
03
Interpret
Upload the results to Gabriel for pattern recognition, protocol suggestions, and next-step guidance.
Frequently asked questions
Questions people usually ask before ordering
No. While CGMs were originally designed for diabetes management, they're increasingly used by non-diabetics for metabolic optimization. Seeing real-time glucose responses to specific foods, exercise, stress, and sleep helps you make data-driven dietary and lifestyle decisions.
A small sensor with a tiny filament sits just under your skin (usually on the back of your upper arm). It measures glucose in interstitial fluid every few minutes and transmits data to your phone via Bluetooth. You can see your glucose level, trends, and patterns in real-time.
Most people describe it as a brief pinch that lasts less than a second. The applicator pushes the filament in quickly. Once placed, you shouldn't feel the sensor at all. It's waterproof and stays on for 10-14 days depending on the brand.
The major consumer options are Levels (uses Dexcom or Abbott sensors), Nutrisense (uses Abbott Libre), and Signos (uses Dexcom). Each pairs the sensor with an app that provides insights, food logging, and metabolic scoring. Standalone sensors from Dexcom and Abbott are also available with a prescription.
You'll discover which foods spike your glucose (it's different for everyone), how exercise timing affects your response, how sleep quality impacts fasting glucose, and whether stress is affecting your metabolic health. Many people are surprised to find that foods they considered healthy cause significant spikes.
Most metabolic health programs recommend 1-3 months to establish your baseline patterns and identify your personal triggers. After that, periodic 2-week check-ins every few months can track improvements. You don't need to wear one permanently.
