Have you tried measuring your glucose levels?
Also if you do it wrong, frequent glucose spiking means insulin resistance means metabolic syndrome, and you really don't want that.
Personally, I'll take energy/mood swings over repeatedly stabbing myself. But if they manage to find a way to measure glucose without doing that, I'm all over it.
Have they solved the problem of glucose meters costing 10 cents and each test strip costing your firstborn yet?
Test strips currently cost about $1 each.
Interesting link; I appear to have at least 5 of those 9 insulin resistance symptoms, and have had them pretty much since I got a car and stopped bicycling and walking everywhere. I think I just got a lot more motivation to exercise. ;-)
