In this video, I explain how consistently high blood sugar levels can cause glycation damage to every cell in your body. One common test used to monitor this is the HbA1c test.
HbA1c, or glycated hemoglobin, measures your average blood sugar over the past 3 months. It reflects the percentage of red blood cells with glucose attached, and it's typically used to diagnose and monitor diabetes, helping assess how well your blood sugar is being managed.
But here’s something interesting—if you’ve been following a ketovore or carnivore lifestyle for several years, your red blood cells may live longer, which can cause your HbA1c to read higher than expected. That’s not necessarily a problem.
To get a clearer picture, you can do a simple finger prick blood glucose test or use a continuous glucose monitor. If your daily readings are in a healthy range, you can confidently disregard a slightly elevated HbA1c.
For even more clarity, I recommend getting a fructosamine test, which reflects your blood sugar over a shorter time frame (2–3 weeks). Also, fasting insulin is a powerful marker of metabolic health—ideally, you want it below 10, with 5 or less being optimal.
Know your health. Lab tests are valuable tools that help us understand our bodies and take control of our well-being.
