Renal Diet HQ Share – Diet Adherence Can Be Measured With A Blood Test

By Mathea Ford Leave a Comment

Renal Diet Hq Share – Diet Adherence Can Be Measured With A Blood TestEven 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?

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/08/140821090009.htm

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.

But my question for you is – Do you care?  Will it change your diet?  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…
