Incretin effect in healthy vs T2DM — 12 month update

Following on from lisa_labSD — and this may be the naive question:

How long did you give it before you decided it was working?

Careful with the causal language. Two things moving together in a period when five things changed is not a mechanism, and stating it as one makes the thread less useful to somebody reading it later.

No disagreement, though it depends on where somebody is starting from, and this thread has been assuming a starting point nobody stated.

This is exactly what I could not find anywhere else.

Adding the clinical framing, because it changes how the question reads. It helps to say which part of this you are uncertain about. A precise question gets a precise answer; a general one gets everybody’s favourite anecdote.
