MyGlucose Coach: Help Understanding Blood Sugars
Metabolic health is now central to modern healthcare, with rising rates of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes highlighting the need for practical, accessible tools.
MyGlucose Coach, developed by Don McKay in collaboration with Dr Ash Wallin, is helping meet that need by turning complex glucose data into simple, actionable insights.
Turning data into action
Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) are increasingly used beyond diabetes care, but understanding the data can be challenging.
MyGlucose Coach uses AI to interpret CGM data and translate glucose patterns into clear behavioural guidance. Rather than just showing numbers, it helps users understand what their glucose responses mean in everyday life.
By combining glucose data with lifestyle inputs, including nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress, the platform provides immediate feedback on how daily choices impact blood sugar.
This creates a powerful real-time learning loop between behaviour and biology.
Supporting low-carb approaches
The platform complements a therapeutic low-carbohydrate approach by allowing users to observe how carbohydrates affect their blood glucose levels directly. Users commonly see:
- Glucose spikes after high-carbohydrate meals
- Improved stability with reduced carbohydrate intake
- Better control with meals centred on protein, fat, and fibre
Simple habits can make a meaningful difference. Many users find that a short walk after meals reduces glucose spikes, while better sleep and stress management improve overall stability.
Making metabolic health understandable
By translating complex data into practical insights, MyGlucose Coach can empower individuals to better understand and improve their metabolic health.
