Blood Glucose Control

Discover what 378 trials involving 113,000+ participants reveal about prediabetes treatment, lifestyle changes, metformin, and incretin therapies.

New research shows the prediabetes exercise response may differ by glucose phenotype, highlighting the potential for more personalized prevention plans.

New trial data suggest dietary fiber supplementation may lower systolic blood pressure in adults with type 2 diabetes and hypertension.

Discover how exercise timing in type 1 diabetes, meal timing, insulin on board, and workout intensity can influence glucose responses.

Discover how psychotherapy for type 2 diabetes may improve A1C, support self-management, and influence weight and metabolic health.

Discover how red blood cell lifespan and biology can affect A1C results, explaining why similar glucose levels may produce different A1C readings.

Could the carbohydrates eaten at breakfast affect the blood sugar response to lunch? Research on resistant starch and the second-meal effect suggests they might. Resistant starch escapes much of the digestion that normally occurs in the small intestine. As a result, less of it is immediately converted to glucose, while …

Time-restricted eating has become a popular approach to weight management, but what happens when insulin-dependent diabetes enters the picture? Until recently, evidence on time-restricted eating in people with type 1 diabetes was notably limited. A new randomized controlled trial published in Diabetes Care offers some of the first direct evidence. …

Could continuous glucose monitoring do more than improve glucose levels and help prevent hypoglycemia? New research raises that possibility. A large observational study examining CGM use and mortality in people with type 1 diabetes found that starting continuous glucose monitoring was associated with a lower risk of death among older …

Low potassium is usually viewed through a cardiovascular lens, especially in patients with heart failure. However, emerging evidence suggests clinicians may have another reason to pay attention. New research examining the relationship between hypokalemia and diabetes risk found that lower serum potassium levels were associated with a greater risk of …
