Thank you, Sylvia. We’ll discuss weight management in more detail in Week 6, when we’ll cover ‘Insulin Resistance, Weight Loss and Maintenance’.
Your Blood Sugar Is More Than Just a Number 
Why glucose stability may matter in type 2 diabetes. This week for our Stroke Prevention tip Professor Chatterjee has written fantastic post about glucose variability and why it matters for stroke risk. There are some excellent diagrams in the post that I couldn't post into the text window, so instead I've uploaded the whole post as a PDF that you can read by clicking the link below. Enjoy!

Thank you for uploading the file, Nik. I live with type 2 diabetes, so this subject is of particular personal interest to me. There is growing interest in the medical literature in glucose variability and its possible relationship with cardiovascular disease, including heart attacks and strokes even in subjects without the diagnosis of diabetes. I am planning a series of seven or eight blog posts entitled ‘Steady Sugars, Healthier Brain: Why Glucose Stability Matters’. I have also included a PDF containing embedded animated videos. When you open the document, you may need to mark it as trusted or allow multimedia content before the animations will play. The next blog post will focus on insulin resistance and beta-cell dysfunction. I hope you enjoy the series, and I would be very pleased to hear your thoughts and comments. I am also exploring the possibility of developing a clinical trial in this area.
