True, and it depends on a baseline nobody has stated. Without knowing where someone started, the same number can be an excellent result or a disappointing one.

My labs after 12 months on glycaemic control: A1C 6.0%, fasting glucose 90 mg/dL, fasting insulin 5 uIU/mL.

Genuinely useful, thank you. I had the facts and not the framework. Printing the relevant bit and taking it with me.

Pushing back on PharmHunterJen here. The objection nobody has made: this only works if the measurement is doing what we assume it is doing, and that assumption has not been tested here.

Adding the numbers, since they settle part of this. The boring version of this is the one that works, and the boring version is: measure a baseline, change one variable, wait, measure again under the same conditions. Nobody wants that answer and it is still the answer.

Moderator note: the sourcing question belongs in the vendor section and has been split out. No action needed from anybody.
