At least for a diabetic, A1C is less looked at nowadays. With CGMs, we can lookt to see our time-in-range, highs, lows, and patterns. It's... amazing.

Plus, you can see just how much different types of foods directly impact your blood sugar. For example, white rice and pizza are crazy for raising glucose levels. I knew about pizza, but I had no idea that white rice what quite _that_ bad.

Doesn’t have to be white. Rice is how I helped screen my wife for gestational diabetes instead of that awful nukacola sugar slam they make pregnant women do and then check sugars at predetermined times when challenged with 50g rice or 50g sugar.

Anyways, yeah rice is basically the insulin dietary equivalent of sugar.
