[QUOTE="Triceraptors, post: 1648148, member: 288166"] Does this sound correct? " Your body is undergoing gluconeogenesis excessively. xEva just mentioned the seemingly paradoxal effect of increasing carbohydrate intake on LOWERING blood sugar. This has to do with the fact that carbohydrates increase insulin and incretin hormones, which shuts of gluconeogenesis and transports glucose out of the blood. Fueling your body with greasy-protein (Ketogenic diet) forces your body to start synthesizing its own glucose. It does this by increasing catabolic-hormones like cortisol, glucagon, GH, catecholamine's and other hormones that turn protein into glucose. These hormones in excessive amounts also reduce insulin sensitivity, reducing the transport of glucose out of the blood. " My cortisol is very high even at day time. I was told my doctors that a bunch of such hormones repress insulin and severely reduce ability to transport glucose from the blood stream which means a build up of dangerous levels of glucose.
