A 2021 study in Nutrients found that a high-protein diet was more effective than the Mediterranean diet at reducing insulin resistance and improving glycemic variability—a risk factor for type 2 ...
Conventional insulin therapy is characterized by: Insulin injections of a mixture of regular (or rapid) and intermediate acting insulin are performed two times a day, or to improve overnight glucose, mixed in the morning to cover breakfast and lunch, but with regular (or rapid) acting insulin alone for dinner and intermediate acting insulin at bedtime (instead of being mixed in at dinner).

Insulin is a hormone that facilitates the transport of glucose from blood into cells, thereby reducing blood glucose (blood sugar). Insulin is released by the pancreas in response to carbohydrates consumed in the diet. In states of insulin resistance, the same amount of insulin does not have the same effect on glucose transport and blood sugar ...
For insulin dependent diabetics, when they eat depends on their blood sugar level and the type of insulin they take (i.e.: long-, medium- or quick-acting insulin). If patients check their blood glucose at bedtime and find that it is low, for example below 6 millimoles per liter (108 mg/dL), it is advisable that they take some long-acting ...
At the end of the trial period, researchers reported that A1C levels on average were reduced by 1.31% in the efsitora cohort compared to 1.27% in the insulin glargine group. People taking efsitora ...
Compared to non-coffee drinkers, morning coffee drinkers had a 16% lower risk of all-cause mortality, while cardiovascular disease-related death risk decreased by 31%. There was no reduction in ...
Chronic Somogyi rebound is a contested explanation of phenomena of elevated blood sugars experienced by diabetics in the morning. Also called the Somogyi effect and posthypoglycemic hyperglycemia, it is a rebounding high blood sugar that is a response to low blood sugar. [1]
