I-OmegaQuant (Sioux Falls, SD) ibhengeza uvavanyo lwe-HbA1c ngesixhobo sokuqokelela isampuli sasekhaya. Olu vavanyo luvumela abantu ukuba balinganise ubungakanani beswekile egazini (iglucose) egazini. Xa iswekile iqokelelana egazini, inamathela kwiproteni ebizwa ngokuba yi-hemoglobin. Ke ngoko, ukuvavanya amanqanaba e-hemoglobin A1c yindlela ethembekileyo yokufumanisa amandla omzimba okugaya iswekile. Ngokwahlukileyo kuvavanyo lweswekile yegazi oluzila ukutya, uvavanyo lwe-HbA1c lubonisa imeko yeswekile yegazi yomntu kwixesha leenyanga ezintathu.
Uluhlu olufanelekileyo lwe-HbA1c yi-4.5-5.7%, ngoko ke iziphumo eziphakathi kwe-5.7-6.2% zibonisa uphuhliso lwe-prediabetes kwaye ngaphezulu kwe-6.2% zibonisa isifo seswekile. Iziphumo zovavanyo kufuneka zixoxwe nomboneleli wezempilo. Uvavanyo luquka intonga elula yomnwe kunye namaconsi ambalwa egazi.
“Uvavanyo lwe-HbA1c lufana novavanyo lwe-Omega-3 index kuba lubamba imeko yomntu kwixesha elithile, kule meko iinyanga ezintathu okanye ngaphezulu. Oku kunokubonelela ngomfanekiso ochanekileyo wokutya komntu kwaye uMeyi ubonisa ukuba utshintsho kwindlela yokutya okanye indlela yokuphila luyadingeka ukuba amanqanaba eswekile egazini lakhe akakho kwinqanaba elifanelekileyo,” utshilo uKelly Patterson, MD, R&D, LDN, CSSD, OmegaQuant Clinical Nutrition Educator, kwingxelo yabezindaba. “Olu vavanyo luza kunceda abantu ukuba balinganise, batshintshe kwaye bajonge imeko yabo yeswekile egazini.”
