blood sugar goes up maybe to 140 maybe to 150 maybe to 160. i'm not worried about the absolute high it comes immediately back down the area under the curve is very small and the insulin sensitivity remains quite exquisite
The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
my fasting blood sugar went down when i introduced carbohydrates so my fasting blood sugar goes down when i introduce carbohydrates because as a physiologically insulin resistant human my blood sugar was kind of flat line but it was higher the baseline was higher all day because of gluconeogenesis and the physiology
introduce carbohydrates fasting blood sugar 72 73 68 these kind of things and then when you eat food i'm eating carbohydrates i would probably i usually like twice a day my blood sugar might go up to 130 140 i don't worry about that because then it comes down quickly
