I also found this very interesting. The return to base at one hour (not 2 hours) after a double figure spike is the interesting part, when DCUK advises under 7.8 at at least 90 minutes is normal for non-diabetics. I wonder how many of those on here that have reversed their diabetes can claim those sort of results?
I also wonder why the research was limited to 18-25 year olds when it is known that glucose levels rise naturally with age. (making it harder for us oldies!)
It's because I work at a university so, unsurprisingly, most of the participants are of university age! There have been a few "oldies" and generally their results are fairly similar but there aren't enough of them to make a fair comparison unfortunately.
EDIT: Also, we're not necessarily looking at the differences with age. For the study I gave as an example we weren't even really that bothered about blood glucose, we were actually measuring ghrelin but did glucose too as "added interest".
