Here’s a link to Meridian Valley Lab in Washington.

https://www.meridianvalleylab.com/services/kraft-prediabetes-profile/

They offer a test kit that you can do at home to test your glucose and insulin response over a 4-hour period after consuming a sweet substance. 

It’s the "Kraft" assay, basically.

The cost is $209.00.

Since I live in Canada there is an extra shipping fee of $20.00.

After you do the test and return it to Meridian it takes about 10 - 14 business days to receive your results.

Any new thoughts on this test? Has anyone around here tried it?

I never understood why people would want to do this test, especially ingesting something we don’t normally eat.

Isn’t fasting insulin (along with fasting glucose for HOMA-IR calculation) good enough indicator of insulin resistance?

If Bernstein said it, then it’s probably 99% true.
