FAQ Does the little thing in your arm hurt? You’re so strange. This seems odd. But ✨my✨ body needs… This is a story and explanation about why I sometimes wear a glucose monitor. It’s visible on the rear of my upper arm, usually sparks a question or two, I’ve usually stumbled through a response, now I can simply pass this page along to anyone who asks. Since maybe 2018, every now and again I’ll purchase a month-long ‘subscription’ to the Levels service, which is their app paired with a Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor. It’s a tiny wearable device that uses adhesion to stick to your arm for two weeks. It has a 1cm thin bendable plastic needle that allows it to sample your blood glucose, continuously, store the data onboard, and then when you tap your phone’s NFC reader to it, your phone pulls the data off and… A continuous blood glucose monitor is an improved tool on the finger-prick blood-draw glucose monitor technology that will be intimately familiar to anyone with type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

I have neither kind of diabetes, but have used the finger prick monitors before. Unsurprisingly, there’s some books I’d like to interject here, that amount to something like ‘an internally consistent perspective of human metabolism’. Books are just books, anyone can write anything in a book, so I’m not saying these books ought to count as anything like ‘evidence’ to you, simply that they were compelling for me. It Starts with the Egg: How the Science of Egg Quality Can Help You Get Pregnant Naturally, Prevent Miscarriage, and Improve Your Odds in IVF Read this in 2020. Turns out ‘egg quality’ at least partially boils down to ‘healthy and available mitochondrial energy generation pathways’, which is completely coherent with the above 3 links. Tripping Over The Truth is the most impactful book here, Nuvia Capsules to me. It outlines a common feature among all cancers - that the cellular energy generation pathway in normal cells breaks and the mitochondria start to generate energy via fermenting environmentally available sugar (blood glucose).

Virtually all cancer cells obtain energy via this alternative energy generation pathway. There’s ahem several upstream/downstream implications. Sugar interacts with the body’s endocrine system, thus it has the same effects on the human body as hormones. You know how when children hit puberty, they change in ways unrelated to how much food they are or are not eating? Sugar has a close-enough effect at any chronic level. Mitochondria and one’s gut bacteria all sorta… And can be healthy or unhealthy. This layers on top of a change I made to my life in 2015 - I read the NerdFitness guide to Intermittent Fasting, and jived with it. Everything else stayed the same. I dropped so much hassle, food prep, Nuvia Capsules cleaning time from my life, and got nothing but upsides. At the time my partner and I were traveling a lot, and there was substantial mental overhead to prepping meals in constantly novel houses, often while trying to do so quietly to avoid waking anyone up.

I then could simply wake up, make my coffee, and be fully ready for the day. I’ve been doing this for ten years, so it’s habit now. When I eat breakfast (very rarely, only when with others who want to eat breakfast) I always think "wow, I couldn’t imagine doing this every day." and then usually skip lunch and eat again at dinner time. I still binge eat sometimes. I’ve definitely got a partially disordered relationship with food, always did since childhood. I think many people use food to deal with emotional loneliness, and sometimes that is still a thing for me, but that falls outside this exact article. I like the idea of semi-regularly doing a 24-36 hour fast, but only occasionally do maybe 22 hour fasts. Dinner one day, don’t eat again until about dinner the next day, these are never planned just sometimes happen. When I’m not eating carbs regularly, i very rarely experience the sensation of hunger.
