Dr. Michael Snyder on Continuous Glucose Monitoring and Deep Profiling for Personalized Medicine

In this episode, Dr. Michael Snyder discusses the future of personalized medicine through the use of wearable technology and big data.
Dr. Michael Snyder, the chairman of the Department of Genetics and director of the Center for Genomics and Personalized Medicine at Stanford University, is a pioneer and powerful advocate of "deep profiling." Deep profiling seeks to apply intelligent analysis to large data sets to yield specialized clinical insight, ranging from common consumer-grade wearables like Apple Watches to whole-body MRI, continuous glucose monitoring, and metabolomics. The proud bearer of eight wearables, Dr. Snyder describes himself as one of the most extensively monitored scientific researchers, a firm believer that "more is better" when it comes to data. #wearables #CGM #personalizedmedicine

I have a Freestyle Libre 2 with Ambrosia Systems BluCon transmitter. I paid for this w/o insurance support. The results of my experiment are AMAZING! CBGM should be available for EVERYONE for free via insurance. It is insane that our health system doesn't provide systems that promote HEALTH care. Instead, we spend (collectively) billions on T2D care.

[@gymjoedude]

I got the libre freestyle 3 for $80 per month at Walmart in the Midwest. I already eat mostly all natural, but use interesting to set the data. I saw Dr Attia talk about his range for a 24 hr period was 77-102. Amazing. I think his highest peak he saw was 140.

Dad of a T1D kid here. CGMs are amazing, I can't imagine life without one and my kid has been wearing one (Dexcom G6) since they were diagnosed with T1D at 4. It's what allows us to maintain a close to normal HbA1C (~5.8). I'd love to try one out and may ask about one this year at my physical. What they say about different foods effecting each person differently is true. My kid reacts differently to foods than many others do, and each T1D tends to find what foods spike them and which don't. Exercise is also amazing...running around playing can drop my kiddo through the floor in minutes if they have a bolus on board. Vigorous exercise (swimming, hiking, etc.) requires us to turn basal off or have high carb snacks on hand. Anyone who CAN get a CGM should try one out. Dexcom is awesome, but expensive. For T1Ds, they're life changing and life saving.

Thanks for the great interview! We have a chance to talk to Dr. Snyder earlier where he discussed about using fitness tracker to early detect disease. We found it very useful, especially my wife have food allergy. We normally wear the fitness watch only during exercises. Now, she wears the fitness watch before and after meals. Her normal heart rate is around 50, she can see her heart rate jump up to 80-120 after she had food that trigger her allergy even she just sitting down. So, based on that she can make better decision to avoid the food that is not good for her. It's very effective and don't cost us extra money. We are so grateful to have talk to Dr. Snyder.

[@GregariousAntithesis]

What is considered a blood sugar spike is the question that isnt being answered and/or what is optimum blood sugar. For example rice will spike my blood sugar up to 160 then go down in roughly 3 hours oatmeal is more of a slower curve rise up to the mid 130s with short spikes into the 140s a few times over 6 hours but pretty much stayed in the 130s. So knowing the A1C ranges that are considered normal is 5.6 which translates to 114 daily average blood sugar. Yet we want fasting blood sugar in around 86. So what is optimum blood sugar? Obviously we need blood glucose and yet its obvious high levels of blood glucose can lead to disease. Anyone know of anything out there that talks about this?

I monitor my glucose the low tech way...with a glucose monitor and ultimately a spreadsheet that I share with my doctors. The most useful thing about this is to create awareness of which foods cause your glucose to spike.

Oh, O.K., so it's pulled pork he spikes to, not 'cold pork.' (I didn't hear him right until they delved into the details and repeated 'pulled pork' several times. BUT still, for this scientist to say he spikes to 'pulled pork' and leaving it at that, is so curious to me, because he's a scientist and yet did not make the distinction (with listeners) that it was actually sugar in the sauce he was spiking to. So, if Dr. Patrick hadn't pointed out that pulled pork typically contains a sugary sauce - he'd have just left this statement that he spikes to 'pulled pork'..??? (Makes no sense to me that he'd say this, being that this guy IS a scientist).

@@rhyothemisprinceps1617 well, I don't think that was the issue...that he couldn't taste the sugar in the sauce. WAS it?? He said nothing about being unable to taste sugar, or not, in the sauce. But something is VERY off about this interview. Unless he and Dr. Patrick conspired beforehand to let the audience GUESS (what the heck! How can anyone have a glucose spike from meat?!!??) how one can have a glucose spike from meat ..and then to let us wonder about that until Dr. Patrick points out that pulled pork has a sugary sauce on it, and THEN he admits, "Oh, yeah it was the sugar in the sauce'...DER! OR, he didn't specify this in the first place bc he assumed listeners would automatically know that pulled pork has a sugary sauce, and so he did not initially specify that? Idk. STILL makes no sense, bc, IIRC he prefaced this whole scenario with, ' different people can spike from very different foods' and that, for instance, HE discovered he spiked from 'pulled pork.'... And then, he just let it go at that, until Dr. Patrick mentioned that pulled pork has a sugary sauce and thus the glucose spike. So, yah, the whole thing was just weird. Left me wondering how can this guy can call himself a scientist when he's presenting so-called facts (I had a huge glucose spike from pulled pork(!)...go figure, haha) - when, in fact, he's leaving a huge chunk of information out of the equation!

[@rhyothemisprinceps1617]

@@barbarafairbanks4578 _how can one have an insulin spike from eating meat_ - well, there is the process of gluconeogenesis - protein can get converted to glucose.

[@barbarafairbanks4578]

@@rhyothemisprinceps1617 thanks for pointing that out! Which now leads to the question (for me) about the definition of a glucose 'spike'. By definition, would a sharp blood serum glucose rise have a time window...(spiking within 15-30 minutes let's say) in order to be considered a 'spike'? (As opposed to a sharp rise, or gradual rise, say over a 60 minute time period post ingestion. Would that longer timespan for rising glucose level still be considered a 'spike'? (just wondering, as you seem to know alot more on this subject than I).

[@rhyothemisprinceps1617]

@@barbarafairbanks4578 I was wondering the same, actually. How a spike is defined seems like it would also depend on the individual's typical baseline level. As far as how it could happen, other than being from sugar added to the meat, there are studies showing an association between consuming polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (found in BBQ and fried food) and metabolic syndrome, and there's also an association between lead exposure (lead exposure is in some ways similar to PAH exposure) and increased gluconeogeneisis and increased fasting blood glucose. I didn't find anything showing that PAH in a single meal could cause an increase in gluconeogenesis & subsequent blood sugar spike, however. But I think this was a weird segment in the interview since it does seem like a scientist that specializes in glucose monitoring would know that pulled pork might have sugar in it and would say something like - watch out for BBQ sauce or sugary BBQ rubs, not 'surprisingly pulled pork spiked my glucose' or however he phrased it - unless the whole thing were contrived for entertainment value.

[@oscarcarrillo2016]

I love his research. Always interesting. Sounds like he’s doing MRI scans, would be curious to know how he uses it. Also would like to know about his insulin status and how he thinks about that.

This isn't about anyone's 'heatlh" - it's about mass surveillance and eventual control.. of YOU. Once you are hooked up to the matrix - if you don't control your diabetes.. your access to your digital bank account will be cut off, and you will be targeted for elimination - to save the system the cost of caring for you.

@@oliviad6713 The cost of caring for sick people is how they make money. Killing people who are sick means less profit. Those profiting from the high cost of healthcare are not interested reducing costs.

When you eat low carb you have low monosaccharides/glucose and the liver starts lipolysis for nrg, consequently, lipids increase in the bloodstream. If your triglyceride/HDL ratio is good then the lipid cycling through the hepatic system is ok and in balance.

Wow Thankyou for your information. It shocked me when you said that pulled pork caused a spike! I never would have thought that!

We (in the big picture) need a comprehensive report of which tests our doctors would have ordered for themselves in the situations of their past patients from that "general population".

Love this. Rhonda brings together lovers of science.

In Chinese Medicine when someone is getting ill, we say the pulse is "floating" it's not that it is faster nesc but that the pulse seems to jump up and touch your finger, perhaps the flow of blood is stronger...if they could measure how wide the lumen is at that point, vs. not?

I reckon CGMs could save the cost of governmental health care and empower the individual to eat right ie the right food for them.

eating pure fat won't spike you :) eating protein won't spike you much. i think doctors and insurance agents should be ashamed of themselves. half the population (at least) don't even realize they've already got type 2 diabetes. my doctor can't tell me why i have high blood pressure. sooooooo you don't care whyyyy i have high blood pressure? really? so you don't care about fixing my high blood pressure huh? and you're a doctor, right? okay. i see how this is goin... i'm gonna have to figure this out on my own i guess.

Hi there people, to those that are somehow trying to track their health by wearing a cgm: help me out, am I understanding this correctly? So if I see that eating a steak with some veggies doesn't create a big spike and a rather carby meal does, does that mean that I clear fat well and do poorly with carbs? Should I be eating foods so that my spike is as low as possible? I watched this video to get an understanding of this particular issue, can we actually measure ourselves which foods we individually do well with by wearing a cgm?
