Inflammation and Cardiovascular Disease (Part 3) - Insulin Resistance Tests - FORD BREWER MD MPH

Episode Summary

This is the last part of our David Meinz's CIMT Tour video series. I'll pick up where I left my discussion on insulin resistance tests. - The Kraft insulin survey extends the information provided by OGTT. It profiles your glucose vs. insulin response. Based on Kraft insulin patterns, you'll know whether you got normal or delayed insulin response, hyperinsulinemia, or insulinopenic type 2 diabetes. - A continuous glucose monitoring system (like the Freestyle Libre glucometer) is a helpful tool to understand your blood sugar patterns, as well.
