The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

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.

if people have not had their fasting insulin level checked I would urge them to ask for that from their physician because I
it is so important to know your fasting insulin it's probably one of the best measures of insulin sensitivity
The reason we focus so much on insulin, the reason I talk about insulin in my book, the reason that uh we write about insulin, the reason we measure a fasting insulin is because that one value, a fasting insulin, can be another indicator of insulin sensitivity. I think it's one of the best single indicators and data points that we have.
I'm getting more and more interested in insulin levels and so I see that as a pretty cut-and-dry arbiter
you can know how insulin sensitive you are with a fasting insulin test
fasting insulin that is the most important thing that doctors are not doing
what is a good predictor of a cardiovascular outcome or long-term health is your insulin sensitivity which you can assay with a fasting insulin
there is no greater metric to understand than your insulin sensitivity and I think there is no better test than fasting
there is no greater metric to understand than your insulin sensitivity and I think there is no better test than fasting insulin I simply do not understand why more Physicians do not order a fasting insulin
there is no greater metric to understand than your insulin sensitivity and I think that there is no better test than fasting insulin
we don't understand that there is fasting glucose but it's not as good as fasting insulin right because it's pretty cool it's not even close at all no you can't use fasting insulin without a fasting glucose you have to relate the two
fasting insulin I think is the that is a dead clear metric of insulin sensitivity that is I mean you could use that
A1C is not a metric of insulin sensitivity
