It talks to our systems.
Wow.
Yeah.
So we would look at those, of course.
We would also want to know what is somebody's insulin.
Most doctors measure glucose, but not insulin.
I personally like to look at somebody's glucose trends over time.
Because if you think about something that's preventable, you don't want to wait till they cross that threshold to prediabetes or diabetes.
So even in the range of so-called normal glucose mark, you know this.
Somebody who's fasting glucose runs less than 85%
is in a very different metabolic place than somebody who's fasting glucose is 95 to 99, even though they're both technically normal, that it's a spectrum of risk.
And the farther along you march that spectrum, the higher the risk of heart disease and diabetes.
So if somebody's glucose used to be 85 and then it was 91 and now it's 98, we're going to talk to that person right off the bat about all the things they need to put into place to prevent it from progressing because they're already on that spectrum.
We also want to know insulin levels, not just a fasting insulin, but sometimes the insulin response to food.
Because the other thing that's emerged is insulin is a player.
And way before somebody's blood glucose goes up, they might be pumping out tons of insulin to try to keep it in a good place.
And insulin by itself contributes to inflammation and more weight gain around the middle, that visceral adipose tissue.
So we want to know their insulin, both fasting and in response to a challenge.
Well, there is some... I mean, fat is a player.
Fat by itself is a player.
