SNEEK PEEK!!
So If I read the writeup correctly this actually maintains low blood glucose levels after eating a high GI meal?
Basically this stuff maintains if not lowers your Glucose levels?
if I am correct, Where has this product been all my life!
As a guy who spent 18months of his life staring at OGTT/IVGTT results every day, I find those AUCs fairly compelling.
80mg/dL is ~baseline for some people, dependant upon bodyweight/bf%
OGTT = Oral Glucose Tolerance Test
IVGTT = Intravenous Glucose Tolerance Test
Basically, give somebody a whole bunch of sugar, then track what the body does with it. Whatever your blood sugar is before you start the test is your "baseline" - this is tightly regulated by the body (largely in the liver), and your baseline blood sugar can be a sign of health or illness. For instance, if a person had a baseline >100mg/dL, I could usually predict fairly accurate if they had diabetes. I'm rusty now as it's been a couple of years.
Normally, following glucose ingestion, you have a large spike in blood sugar levels, as all that glucose hits the blood pretty quick. So, you see a rise on the graphs in that "white paper"; but SLINshot prevented the majority of that "spike" from occurring, keeping blood sugar levels much closer to baseline.
Whether that is due to the SLINshot acting like insulin, or preventing glucose absorption, or what is not tested in those tests.
So, it will keep you from having a sugar spike and crash, which should also prevent an insulin spike, but what does happen with that sugar is yet to be seen.
Exactly, what is happening to the sugar? Look forward to more info.
in theory, if we have too much glucose or too much, isn;t our livers job to keep us in a homeostasis balance.. - which keeps us alive.. messing with scares me.
but im sure purus has a good reason
no hatejust speculating
Yea, this is way over my head, i have no idea what you saying. If you care to explain, via a PM, i'd be more than glad to learn about this stuff. Thanks man!
LOU
Go purus ftw
explain here, I would like to know to... I mean if you want to explain that is.

Bigt just finished his log and there are two others going and should be another starting soon.
There should be several reviews coming up on another new board MFF as well. Still relatively new so not a ton of reviews out there just yet.
