Nope.Either of fasting BG, OGTT OR A1C are diagnostic of diabetes. This is from the Canadian Diabetes Association:
A bit confusing, but the box on the far right, second from the top (2-h value => 11.1 mmol/L) is you.
well you may chose to eat more healthy all the time nowWouldn't say I've been on a low carb diet for any length of time, more eating healthy on occasion lol
your meter is going to be your new best friend, if it was me, I'd cut out all wheat flour product, and add some real butter and healthy oils, olive and coconut to your dietSure will! Summers on it's way so BBQ meat and salad for me (and a little wine, can't i?)
Would the results show a false positive if I had been low carb? Or does it mean I might be slightly worse but the results don't reflect that?
On and off ,I have days where I just have meat and salad but I do have a fair amount of wine most days. I normally indulge at the weekends
a lower carb diet, will make the fasting test and a1c better and the sugar drink worse..you have a raised fasting, so you are at least pre-diabetic, you may not be full diabetic as the sugar drink said....which is the gold standard if done properly.Would the results show a false positive if I had been low carb? Or does it mean I might be slightly worse but the results don't reflect that?

"may of only had some salad in the days before" doesn't sound like a die-hard low carber to me.check your BG, one of us are argumentative
you didn't see her reply to you in post 11 ?
what is the carb requirement for the few days preceding the OGTT ?"may of only had some salad in the days before" doesn't sound like a die-hard low carber to me.Anyway, if you want to tell her she's not diabetic, go ahead. Personally, I'd believe the doctor is this matter. Also, a 1934 experiment on 20 year old healthy men isn't something I'd hang my hat on. :***:
If you think all experiments done on healthy 20 year olds will have the same result if done on middle aged diabetics, then good for you. Personally, I don't believe that. And of course lots of tests are done on people who are not healthy.what is the carb requirement for the few days preceding the OGTT ?
you are peaking today, I'm not telling her she is not diabetic.
yes, she should listen to her Dr
all testing is based on the normal healthy population
so that's 1 out of 4 points I agree with

However, the following study shows a low carb/low fat diet (i.e. salads) will not affect the OGTT test in healthy 20 year olds:

this is why they have the min carb of 150g for a few days before the test, to have it standardised.Read the whole thing, then comment.It won't take long.

in post 2 I said
unless you were very low carb diet prior to this, the test shows you have diabetes by the glucose response,
in post 4 I said
a normal diabetic has fasting over 7 and after the sugar drink, over 11 at 2 hour, eating over 150g of carb per day for a few days before the sugar drink test.
then you joined into the discussion with what I considered an argumentative attitude
but I also read the first sentence of the LCLF full report, that agrees with the LCHF link that you ridiculed, it seems you just want to be pedantic on all accounts
