Renal Diet HQ Share – Diet Adherence Can Be Measured With A Blood Test
Even though you probably already knew that doctors could measure your “mean” blood sugar levels based on a lab test – HGA1C tells them your average blood sugar levels over time – did you know they are working on other ways to testing compliance with diet?

From the article:
New results from the Nordic SYSDIET study show that it’s possible to assess dietary compliance from a blood sample. This is especially useful in controlled dietary intervention studies investigating the health benefits of specific diets. So far, such studies have mainly relied on the participants’ self-reported dietary intake, which is often biased, making it more difficult to assess the real health benefits.

As a dietitian, it would make it a heck of a lot easier because many times people come in and say “I am doing everything you said” when – in fact – they mean for the last 24 hours, not the last 3 weeks or so. Does knowing your doctor can check your HGA1C change how you eat? I’m not sure it does…
