it’s also known as; glucose test‚ two-hour postprandial blood sugar test‚ and postprandial test. It’s used in order to check for diabetes‚ to evaluate the effectiveness of medication or dietary therapy in those already diagnosed with diabetes‚ and also to confirm the fasting plasma glucose test results. If the person has diabetes‚ then‚ her/his body doesn’t make sufficient amounts of insulin so as to keep the blood glucose levels within the normal levels. If the blood glucose levels are too high

Activity 1 Which rat had the fastest baseline metabolic rate? Normal Rat Why did the metabolic rates differ? The hypophysectomized rat lacked thyroid-stimulating hormone. The thyroidectomized rat lacked thyroxine hormone. Activity 2 What was the effect of thyroxine on the normal rat’s metabolic rate? How does it compare to the normal rat’s baseline metabolic rate? Thyroxine caused the metabolic rate to increase; it was faster. Why was this effect seen? Because it stimulates heart rate‚

7. What about SGLT2 Inhibitors? SGLT2 Inhibitors would be an option of treatment for this patient. SGLT2 Inhibitors are responsible for inhibiting the reabsorption of glucose that results in excretion of glucose in the urine and ultimately the lowering of glucose levels. The patient was started on Metformin and was not compliant with the treatment. SGLT2 Inhibitors can be given as a monotherapy or as a second line therapy. SGLT2 Inhibitors would be a suitable option for the client considering
