A full assessment of glycemic response should include not just the peak postprandial glucose level but also the duration of elevation and the area under the curve (AUC).

“i encourage people to look beyond the dogmatism of pure you know glucose response beyond to like a full postprandial glucose response how long does your glucose stay elevated what's your glycemic variability you can use a cgm for this but it's more it's more complex than just postprandial you know how high does it go in an absolute sense i want to know what the auc is under the curve”
