Abstract

Gerald C Hsu

This article explores the relationships and dynamics between postprandial plasma glucose (PPG, i.e., post-meal glucose) and fasting plasma glucose in the early morning (FPG), the amount of carbohydrates and sugar intake amount during meals (in grams), and the level of post-meal exercise (e.g., walking steps). The author initiated his data collection on important biomarkers and lifestyle details since 2012, focusing more on a 10-year period from 1/1/2014 to 11/14/2023, due to limited data available for 2012 and 2013. The correlations between PPG and both FPG and carbohydrate/sugar intake are notably high at +89%, and there is another significant negative correlation of -63% with post-meal walking steps. These statistical findings align closely with the author's understanding of glucose pathophysiology and biochemistry. Additional statistical analyses, conducted in three-year periods, reveal a consistent downward trend in averaged data for PPG, FPG, and carbs/sugar intake, resembling a skiing slope. Post-meal walking steps exhibit a mountain-like pattern with the mid-period at its peak.
