Insulin resistance (IR)
HOMA-IR: Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance. It marks both the presence and extent of insulin resistance that you might currently express. It is a terrific way to reveal the dynamic between your baseline (fasting) blood sugar and the response hormone insulin. HOMA-IR = (Glucose x Insulin

What a difference a year makes !
I posted the following in the 'Bridge to 10k' forum a few days ago and it has been suggested that Couch to 5k members might also find it interesting and hopefully supportive to your running journeys: I recently passed the anniversary of my starting c25k. So what's happened during that year? Well Runkeeper

Sugar
Getting a bit lost with all the posts! Someone wrote in recently about flares after eating sugar so thought it worth adding that I had 2 very bad days twice recently after eating quite a lot of refined sugar (once at Easter!). I am not diabetic and still have a relaxed attitude e.g. to a smidgeon of

A diabetes study recommending treatment based on clinical features published in The Lancet
Although not a thyroid article diabetes is related to thyroid matters so it is interesting to me that another group of endocrinologists are being encouraged to look at signs and symptoms of a disease. Medscape reputed the article and said: Simple clinical features at diabetes diagnosis — such as body

I realise this is the weight-loss forum, but diabetes and obesity are inextricably linked, and we seem to have had quite a few posts on the subject lately. I was unable to respond to lucigret's tag on a closed thread, so herewith a few thoughts on the subject. 1) Back when my mum was a ward sister,

"Algae Cal and Strontiuml"
Algae Cal Plus and Strontium. Does anybody have any experience of these supplements? They claim to improve bone density. They are very expensive.....but their claims to improve bone density seem somewhat plausible. And they are heavily marketed once you show any interest on Facebbok ad......keeps repeating

How strict are you on low-carbs?
I’m trying to bring my A1c back to 5.6. My last test in April showed 5.7. It had always been 5.6 since diagnosed with PMR/GCA in January 2019. I Started on 40 mg of pred, now at 10. I had gotten somewhat off track after Christmas. I’ve read that 40- 50 grams of carbs a day is considered low

Intermittent Fasting and Keto: The Pros and Cons
Intermittent fasting (IF) and ketogenic diets are all the rage now. They both promote fat burning. But how well do these two approaches combine? Ketogenic diets promote fat burning by restricting carbs, which forces you to rely more on dietary fat. IF restricts all calories for a large part of the day

Health Paradox: US diabetes cases fall as obesity rises
Hi everyone, Here's a really interesting article about how obesity is rising in the US and yet diabetes is falling. I think that some of these aberrations are due to them making diagnosis more robust so people have been diagnosed who has slipped through the net. They use the haemoglobin A1C blood test

Blood sugar testing
Hi I'm type 2 diabetic and I currently manage this by taking metformin 3 times per day weight each meal. I am concerned that I never know what my blood sugar readings are and asked my gp if I could have a test kit however was told I didn't need one. Does anyone test theirs and if so what type of monitor

Diet tips to improve insulin resistance
Insulin is a hormone that helps the body absorb glucose and keeps blood sugar levels balanced. Insulin resistance makes it harder for the body's cells to take in glucose. However, some dietary measures can improve insulin resistance. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/316569.php

About the recent insulin articles
There have been various articles and media stories about whether there is a correlation about pre diabetes insulin resistance and fibromyalgia. Also, whether the use of the drug metformin can treat fibromyalgia pain and give relief. The University of Texas study can be found here: https://journals.plos.org
