[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1564307, member: 41816"] I have read in a couple of different places that the body will liver dump approx every 5 hours, unless we eat in that time. And will continue to do so until the glycogen stores in the liver have been depleted, and the body switches to fat as a fuel source. Never found that particularly accurate for me though, so I would take it with a pinch of salt. And I wonder if low carbing, or keto eating may change things significantly. Since wearing the Libre I would say that my blood glucose levels are always rising or falling, sometimes skipping about like a stone skimmed over a pond, and sometimes dipping and peaking. This happens even during fasting. The variation may not be large (1-2mmol/l) but it certainly isn't steady with rises on a 5 hour schedule! [/QUOTE]
