Sounds like what you’d be interested in is insulin sensitivity, the ability to control blood sugar with the minimal amount of insulin possible. Sadly this is also a huge pain in the butt to measure, and the only way I’ve heard is to spike your blood sugar and time how long it takes to return to normal.

I personally use a keto mojo to measure blood glucose and blood ketone bodies. I’m not diabetic so I don’t need to use it, but I’m a fan of being able to tell how far into ketosis I am.
