Dr. Peter Martone is an educator and patient care practitioner who has been focused on improving patient’s biomechanics for over 23 years during his private practice as a chiropractor. Dr. Martone always believed that the structure of your spine effects the function of the central nervous system, and this principle is the cornerstone of his practice. Dr. Martone’s core belief is that the central nervous system controls every function in the human body and in order to be able to express true health you have to keep your nervous system healthy. When your spine falls out of alignment due to poor spinal mechanics, it interferes with the proper function of the nervous system thus throwing the body out of balance. Peter’s mission is to help as many people as possible achieve optimal health function and performance so they can reach their full potential in life.

I take a deep dive into my 4 month CGM/Blood Sugar experiment in this episode! I share very practical aspects of using a CGM (continuous glucose monitor), what I learnt about my blood sugar response to various foods and other stressors and some suggestions to get the most out of your own CGM experiment should you wish to give it a go!

Having stable blood sugar levels is good for supporting thyroid health and if you'd like to understand why before listening to my personal story, check out episode 101 where I talk with Dr Ben Galyardt all about blood sugar and thyroid health.

If you have any questions about my experiment feel free to ask in the comments!
