How to Use Your Data for Optimal Diabetes Control - ODT
Mon Feb 02 2026
Gary and I take on one of the most important skills in modern diabetes management: understanding and using your data. We break down how to analyze CGM and pump data to identify patterns, trends, and problem areas without getting overwhelmed by numbers. The conversation covers basal insulin, bolus timing, insulin to carb ratios, correction factors, and what metrics like time in range and glucose variability actually tell you about your settings. We also discuss when to make adjustments on your own and when to involve a diabetes educator.
