[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1486636, member: 211504"] I'm not sure that I've ever seen any studies or science to suggest that you necessarily become more insulin resistant after childhood. Some children may have a more sensitive insulin: carb ratio because they're honeymooning and their pancreas still produces some insulin. Children may eat less and may be more active which could make their total daily insulin needs lower than an adult, but I'm not aware of anything that says your insulin:carb ratios will become less sensitive.
