The area under the curve for postprandial glucose and insulin response, rather than the peak value, is more important for assessing metabolic health.

“If we're if we're going to get super granular about, you know, postpranial glucose curves and correlate them with potential postprandial insulin, it has more to do with the area under the curve. So, you have to do an integral rather than the absolute, you know, apex of the curve, which is not necessarily something that anyone is really understanding the nuance around.”
