Fasting Plasma Glucose Guidelines
American Diabetes Association: 70 – 130(!) mg/dL (3.9-5.6 mmol/L)
Life Extension Foundation: 70 – 85 mg/dL (3.9-4.7mmol/dL)
Me: 85 mg/dL (ok, but not ideal!)

•  Oxaloacetate works… but only see benefits in conjunction with
intense, interval-type exercise
•  Mondays suck, weekends are awesome!
•  Playing soccer has an effect on lowering fasting glucose the
following day
What did I learn?
@QuantifiedBob2014 QS Europe
•  Oxaloacetate works… but only see benefits in conjunction with
intense, interval-type exercise
•  Mondays suck, weekends are awesome!
•  Playing soccer has an effect on lowering fasting glucose the
following day
•  Alcohol does not seem to have a significant effect
•  Travel seems to negatively affect glucose for several days –
oxaloacetate may help
•  Most devices never 100% accurate (or even 95%) but as long
as they are consistently off can still see trends

•  Failure != FAIL J - can be some very valuable data (or force you
to look at your data in other ways)
What did I learn?
@QuantifiedBob2014 QS Europe
•  Continuous monitoring - 24/7 readings (before/during/after
meals, exercise, sleep, sex)
•  Effects of sitting all day vs. standing
•  Sleep, stress/HRV, mood
•  Test out other natural supplements known to regulate
glucose (berberine, pterostilbene, etc.)
•  Track other diet variables (low/med/high carb days), specific
ingredients, meal times, etc.
•  Environmental impact (indoor air quality, time outdoors)
What will I do NEXT?

  • 25. •  Oxaloacetate works… but only see benefits in conjunction with intense, interval-type exercise •  Mondays suck, weekends are awesome! •  Playing soccer has an effect on lowering fasting glucose the following day What did I learn? @QuantifiedBob2014 QS Europe
  • 26. •  Oxaloacetate works… but only see benefits in conjunction with intense, interval-type exercise •  Mondays suck, weekends are awesome! •  Playing soccer has an effect on lowering fasting glucose the following day •  Alcohol does not seem to have a significant effect •  Travel seems to negatively affect glucose for several days – oxaloacetate may help •  Most devices never 100% accurate (or even 95%) but as long as they are consistently off can still see trends What did I learn? @QuantifiedBob2014 QS Europe

  • 28. •  Continuous monitoring - 24/7 readings (before/during/after meals, exercise, sleep, sex) •  Effects of sitting all day vs. standing •  Sleep, stress/HRV, mood •  Test out other natural supplements known to regulate glucose (berberine, pterostilbene, etc.) •  Track other diet variables (low/med/high carb days), specific ingredients, meal times, etc. •  Environmental impact (indoor air quality, time outdoors) What will I do NEXT? @QuantifiedBob2014 QS Europe
