test measuring body's glucose processing after consuming sugary drink

The Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) is a diagnostic procedure used to assess how well your body processes glucose. After fasting overnight, you drink a sugary solution, and your blood glucose levels are measured at intervals over the next few hours. This test helps diagnose conditions like diabetes and insulin resistance.
