Conversely, within non-diabetic populations, periods of IER (75 - 85 % ER on restricted days) do not typically affect fasting glucose levels 37, 41, 45, 48 or HbA1c 41, 48; results of which can often be replicated by short term CER studies.62 - 65These findings are unsurprising given that frank hyperglycaemia within the T2DM diagnostic range is effectively a late - stage manifestation of IR, which along
with compensatory increases insulin secretion, can precede the onset of T2DM by many years.66, 67 Findings from one
large scale prospective
cohort study, Whitehall II, reveal a sharp increase in the trajectory towards fasting hyperglycaemia which is only detectable three years prior to diagnosis
with T2DM.67 Consequently, it can be argued that changes in circulating insulin concentrations, fasting (hepatic) insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake / clearance are more sensitive markers of deteriorating glucose control than fasting glycaemia in non - diabetics.68 - 70
