I think you are misinformed: the electrochemical reaction used by continuous glucose sensors relies on a glucose-specific enzyme and it doesn't have anything to do with lactate. Lactic acid strips use a completely separate enzyme/reaction.

Hat tip to you and sibling comment about continouous lactate sensors (seem like they are microneedle/patch based?). Quick review shows minimal clinical evidence, but maybe that's sufficient for the consumer wearable market.

I've had the fortune to work with several CGM OEMs behind the scenes as part of our work developing an artificial pancreas, they all have a secret lactate signal!
