[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2039551, member: 345386"] You simply consume at least 130g carbs daily for at least 3 days before the test. Acquire the required acquire 75gr glucose from your corner Family Mart and disolve it in water. Prepare your test station with plenty blood glucose strips and maybe some reading material (as you'll be sitting still for a couple of hours), then fast overnight Get up and disolve the glucose in water (or you could do that the night before too). Test your blood sugar before you drink it down. Sit still - no food, drink (even water), or exercise Test every half hour at least (I did every 15 minutes), and record Continue testing until 2 hours have elapsed. I chose to go a little longer, just to see what was happening. Review the results. Alternatively, you could go to your local bloods lab and have it done, although from memory, it wasn't the cheapest test on the menu, when I had some bloods done in your part of the world. Edited to add, I've just looked at the list of tests and it wasn't offered where I went. [/QUOTE]
