Leverage continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to gain real-time insights and simplify T1D decisions 

Elevate T1D Management with CGM

Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) have deepened our understanding of glucose patterns. By wearing a sensor, you gain real-time insights into your glucose levels, adding guidance to your daily decisions.

Over time, the sensor data can help uncover your unique patterns and boost your confidence to make adjustments.

Wearing a CGM for the first time can feel like a big change. You might have a lot of questions!  Some guided practical tips can set you up for a positive experience (without constant beeps!) so you can harness the power of CGM to take your diabetes management to the next level.

Learn the basics of insulin pumps and how they can give you more flexibility.

Many people choose to use an insulin pump for reasons beyond breaking free from injections. With a pump, you can be more flexible and precise with insulin doses and integrated bolus calculators can help minimize the guesswork around insulin doses. 

With recent advancements, we now recommend using an insulin pump in combination with a glucose sensor, which work together as Automated Insulin Delivery Systems.

Learn how sensor & pump combo systems can work for you!

Closed-loop pumps, or "Automated Insulin Delivery" (AID) systems, are transforming type 1 diabetes management. They adjust insulin delivery automatically, helping you stay in range and proactively manage highs and lows—finally easing some of the burden we face every day.

Switching to an AID system is a big decision.  You might be wondering, "Can I really trust this technology?" And with so many options out there, how do you choose the right one?
