Additional material: Blood sugar and ketones
In this bonus section, we will cover additional material on key health indicators that directly affect our vitality and longevity - blood sugar and ketones.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one in three adults has prediabetes, as confirmed by fasting glucose or haemoglobin A1C measurements. However, only 10-12 % of these adults are aware of their condition. Prediabetes affects cardiovascular, immune, neuroendocrine and cognitive function. A recent large meta-analysis showed that high fasting glucose levels are an important risk factor for disability. In women, however, negative effects are already detected at lower glucose levels than in men.
We therefore consider it important to address this topic further.
