And if you're off, you will go higher than that.

For most people, you want to keep your glucose between 70 and 140.

If you're healthy, for diabetics, they say try and keep it between 70 and 180.

And that is what people try to do.

And most healthy people, it's pretty easy.

And I think one of the things we've done, you've heard about continuous glucose monitors, these devices.

And I'm wearing one and some of your staff I know are wearing them as well.

And they're over the counter now.

You put these on your arm and they measure your glucose every five minutes.

So you can see exactly what's going on.

And so we put them on so-called normal people, pre-diabetics and some diabetics.

That was already well-known.

Diabetics will spike their glucose through the roof too high for too long.

And then the people devise, especially type 1s, control mechanisms for releasing insulin and controlling all of that.

But for the average person, that wasn't so well known at the time we were doing this.

And it was a bit of a surprise to see that a lot of people, some did a very good glucose control, but some pre-diabetics were what we call moderate spikers.

We came up and named glucotypes as a way of quantifying this.

And then some people were spiking just as bad as diabetics and had no idea.

Yeah.

And so it's a way of revealing what was going on.
