Scientists have developed a method to identify individuals at risk of developing type 2 diabetes and obesity through a simple saliva test

Saliva Testing Uncovers Early Indicators of Diabetes and Obesity

A groundbreaking study led by researchers at UBC Okanagan is challenging conventional methods of metabolic health assessment by demonstrating that insulin levels measured through saliva can serve as a reliable, non-invasive biomarker for predicting the risk of Type 2 diabetes and obesity. This innovative approach diverges from the traditional reliance on blood glucose testing by harnessing the physiological links between saliva insulin and metab…
