Time for another #thursdaythread in collaboration with @diabeteschat.

This one is about 'time in range' (TIR)⏰

It was requested during this week's #diabeteschat session.

This thread aims to define TIR and identify recommendations for TIR. Image of the this weeks thread front cover which is about ti

What is 'time in range'?

It is a measurement of CGM sensor data highlighting how much time glucose levels are within a specific glucose range for a 24 hours period:
· 3.9 – 10.0mmol/L (70 – 180 mg/dL) for adults.
· 3.5 – 7.8mmol/L (63 – 140 mg/dL) during pregnancy🤰
3/14
Where did TIR come from?

In 2019, the @ATTDconf congress brought together a panel of individuals: #pwd, healthcare professionals and researchers with expertise in CGM.

They developed CGM target percentages of time within, below and above the glucose range⏰

1/10 Something to celebrate:

New research gives #hope for *EVERYONE* with type 2 diabetes🎉

Our study finds that >3/4 of people with #T2D diagnosed in the previous 12 months can achieve drug-free remission simply by improving their diet

A Twitter thread on our findings...
2/10 This "real world" study covers 8 years and looked at 186 people with T2D in a typical 🇬🇧general practice who decided to try a low carbohydrate approach

Mean duration of low carb diet was 33 months although many have continued to cut out carbs for years more
3/10 The paper is published today in @BMJNutrition
Authors: @lowcarbGP (Lead), @jen_unwin , @ChrisDLDN , @DocRunner1 and Prof Roy Taylor (world-leading expert on reversing T2D and an author of #DiRECT study)

Here's a link to the paper 👇

What predicts drug free remission of T2D on a low carb diet and what happens to those who don’t achieve remission? We publish today here nutrition.bmj.com/content/early/… 97% of participants who chose low carb improved their diabetic control 51% achieved drug free remission #hope 😊
The very famous Professor Roy Taylor was our senior author He and I have a shared belief that by improving diet drugs are very often not needed to improve diabetic control as this pie chart shows @DiabetesUK #hope
So after nearly three years on a low carb diet for their #T2D what happened to the markers of cardiovascular risk ? Significant improvements in blood pressure, weight cholesterol and triglyceride 👍

Many people ask - I'm eating what my grandparents ate. They were vegetarians & were (mostly) healthy & slim.
Why do I have #metabolic issues? Why should I change my food?
(I'm referring to 👵🧓 before the 1980-90s era)
Consider these answers (A THREAD)
👇🏽
1. NO FOOD MILES & CLEAN EATING
Have you seen them eat from a hotel? Or buy from a shop?
They always ate locally sourced items, home cooked simple meals. Grains, Fruits & veggies didn't have the amount of #pesticides that are found today.
2. SUGARS & TREATS FOR SPECIAL OCCASSIONS
Sugary food, snacks & treats were mainly reserved for special occasions & feasting times. They were NOT an everyday item.

Recently, US Republicans successfully struck down a measure in the Inflation Reduction Act that would have capped private insurance copays for insulin at $35 (1/7) #T1D #T2D #diabetes @diaTribeNews 🧵🧵
While this measure still did not go far enough to make sure insulin is accessible and affordable for every person who needs it, it could have moved us a step closer. (2/7) #T1D #T2D #diabetes @diaTribeNews
But there’s another challenge surrounding insulin in addition to being unaffordable… stigma. (3/7) #T1D #T2D #diabetes @diaTribeNews

1/ 🙏 Happy Accident 🧵

I’m incredibly thankful for that day back in March 2015 when I got an A1c of 6.1 for the second year in a row.

Why?

It led to my finding #lowcarb as a possible means to prevent the onset diabetes…
2/ Shortly after starting, I had immediate family members with health issues be inspired to do likewise.

One of those immediate family members had an A1c of 8.1 at the time. Two were hypertensive, and taking medication for it. And these are just the immediate family members…
3/ off the top of my head, I think there are roughly 2 dozen people between both close friends and family who are sustained lower carb now than they were before For weight loss, or other reasons of health gain.

To be sure, it hasn’t worked for everyone, nor would I expect that.

GLP-1-based therapies are slowly approaching #bariatricsurgery level #weightloss and more exciting science to come. There is the impressive SURMOUNT-1 trial for tirzepatide #obesity nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

The results obtained with semaglutide and now tirzepatide provide compelling examples of how investments in science over time enable new more effective therapies for metabolic disorders #T2D #Obesity perhaps #NASH. These results also raise the bar for new mechanisms in the space
