In this episode, Jenna discusses her choice to do Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) during pregnancy, rather than the traditional glucose challenge to screen for gestational diabetes. However the bulk of the episode is dedicated to how you could utilize a CGM in your health journey to overcome insulin resistance, adrenal fatigue, weight loss resistance, metabolic repair, or PCOS.

She shares her personal experience with CGM, explaining how it provides valuable insights into blood sugar regulation and its impact on overall health. Jenna emphasizes the role of nutrition, exercise, stress, and sleep in managing blood glucose levels and highlights the significance of understanding insulin's role in this process.
