How much are the continuous glucose monitors alone now? You could use it for dieting.

  No, it's not usable for dieting for healthy (non-diabetic) individuals because the pancreas will adjust glucose/insulin levels to a pretty flat level. When a non-diabetic person says "I need some blood sugar" when they're hungry and cranky, their actual glucose levels are pretty much at the same levels as usual.

    So what is happening when you stand up quickly and your vision goes slightly black when you haven't eaten for a while?

      I don't know. Sounds like something related to blood pressure. Hunger affects hormones and that affects lots of things.
