EDIT: I DID NOT PUT THE SENSOR ON THE PROPER BACK SIDE OF THE ARM THE FIRST TWO TIMES SO THE VALUES ARE NOT RIGHT. STILL THE SPIKES ARE IMPORTANT I just put a new CGM on today! I'll log various foods and my glucose response to them! First time in (barely) over a year. Original log at rapamycin.news, but invision is a better forum than discourse so I'll post here. Want to do some testing before I get into the new canagliflozin trial Previous thread here: https://www.rapamycin.news/t/alex-k-chen-metabolic-cgm-progress-my-everything-in-longevity-thread/466 [I will post here now b/c invision board gets less unwieldy with size] === Glucose started at 72, 2 hrs after canneli beans w/o protection. === I have hibose I need to test (interesting I didn't test for just barely over a year). Also some beans. Need to test beans with both hibose and white kidney bean extract, and *also* beans without any protection. Then at some point I'm going to test SANDWICHES with hibose and then white kidney bean extract. The kidney bean extract is especially important b/c if I can block glucose increases with that, I don't need to do all the hassle of acarbose. Also, sandwiches with JUST enough acarbose to block the increase (I overdid acarbose every time I used a sandwich in the past, but this also wasted too much acarbose) also going to test canned tomatoes **and** salsa (probably going to be a high increase, like I got with tomato sauce). These are the foods I omitted last time.. ALSO need to test this on Bush's Blue Zones beans... [I also need, at some point, apricots/plums/peaches to see if I can reduce them with acarbose, but they're not in-season rn] I will get 300mg canagliflozin on roughly March 21, and then I'll use it to test if I can use it to block glucose increases from strawberries ======= At 21:00 I ate Bush's best chickpeas [right after Gochu Curry Kraut, miso, and an entire box of almonds], than 300mg hibose. 30 minutes later, glucose has increased from 80s to 93 (not much). 36 minutes later, it seems to go down again.. Glucose back to 82 at 22:18. Damn
