Dexcom Stelo Review: Setup, Demo & First Impressions (Over-the-Counter CGM)

Dexcom Stelo Sensor: https://amzn.to/3N25Hyy #DexcomStelo #CGM #DiabetesTech #MetabolicHealth #continuousglucosemonitor In this video, I start my full test of the Dexcom Stelo CGM, the new over-the-counter continuous glucose monitor designed for people who are not using insulin. I walk you through the complete Dexcom Stelo setup, app onboarding, sensor insertion, warm-up, and my first real glucose readings, and I compare the results with my medical-grade Guardian 4 CGM that controls my insulin pump. I purchased the Dexcom Stelo two-pack for $99 and I’m testing it alongside the new Abbott Lingo CGM to answer the big question: Are OTC CGMs accurate and useful enough to recommend? As someone living with LADA diabetes and using an insulin pump every day, I bring a real-world perspective on: • Dexcom Stelo accuracy • CGM sensor comfort and wearability • App features and usability • Target range differences for insulin vs non-insulin users • How CGMs can improve weight, nutrition, energy, stress and long-term health This is the first video in my Dexcom Stelo series, where I’ll continue testing accuracy, features, trends, and how OTC CGMs compare to medical-grade sensors. If you’re curious about CGMs, glucose tracking, metabolic health, or diabetes technology, this series is for you. 👍 Like if this helped 🔔 Subscribe to follow the full CGM experiment 💬 Comment with your experience or questions — it helps the channel grow!
