FreeStyle Libre

Abbott CGM used in clinic and, increasingly, in food experiments.

Libre is the other clinical CGM people recognize. It is built for diabetes care. Biohackers borrow it to watch meals; that does not make it a wellness toy.

How to use

Apply per the insert. Follow labeled wear time. Medical use needs a clinician.
