Quick one. Canada here. A1c works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given advice that…
Genuinely asking, not being difficult. Everyone in c/meta repeats that ALT is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I search I get 12…

Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom. I have been tracking bloodwork against ApoB for 11 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. The correlation is weaker…
