New research suggests glucose test may predict cognitive decline
The higher a subject's results on a 2-hour glucose tolerance test, the more likely they were to show memory declines 10 years later.
Study finds insulin resistance may predict depression
Over nine years, people with markers of insulin resistance were almost twice as likely to develop depression than those without
Can trauma affect our metabolic health?
Potentially traumatic childhood experiences—and stressful events in adulthood—can alter our physiology and make us more susceptible to dysfunction
Is metabolic health behind cognitive decline?
Growing research suggests that Alzheimer’s and dementia are connected to insulin and glucose processing in the brain. Here's what we know
Why this heart surgeon thinks metabolic health is crucial to cardiac health
Dr. Philip Ovadia on why heart disease almost always stems from metabolic dysfunction and the changes to our medical systems that could help
My Perspective, Ultimate Guide
How I finally found migraine relief after cutting my sugar intake
Abigail Libers had near-daily migraines for years—until she tried a low-carb diet. The blood sugar and migraine connection, explained
Breathing exercises for better metabolic health
Research shows that controlled breathing can positively impact our nervous system, reducing stress and maybe even improving glucose control.
Research reveals more links between metabolic health and dementia
Three recent studies examine the connection between high blood sugar (including prediabetes) and Alzheimer’s, dementia, and cognitive impairment.
Optimizing mental clarity, focus, and memory with CGM
Research suggests that large swings in glucose can lead to worse memory and fact recall. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can help develop a more nuanced understanding of how food and lifestyles decisions affect cognitive performance, and highlight opportunities for improvement.
The power of personalized data: a conversation with Todd Rose
Levels Co-Founders Josh Clemente and Dr. Casey Means interviewed Todd Rose, author of "The End of Average" and Co-Founder of Populace.
How do glucose levels relate to depression and anxiety?
Controlling blood sugar dysregulation may be an important factor in reducing the risk of mood disorders like anxiety and depression. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can serve as a biofeedback tool to gain clarity into how personal glucose levels and mood are related.
