[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1334381, member: 85785"] Hi, Do we fast or very low carb to treat the symptoms or the cause of either high insulin or insulin resistance? The problem is to stop the symptoms, you reduce your low carb enough to reduce your initial and secondary insulin response., which reduces both insulin production and converts your energy from carbs to muscle fat, hence ketosis. As usual it's a lot more complicated than that but reduction of insulin resistance is paramount to being healthy. By stopping insulin production and insulin resistance your body reduces the high glucose in your blood as well. Your body works better. By doing both fasting and low carbing, your body can cope better with its metabolic condition. You are treating the cause and the effect. If like me, the cause is unknown as well as the cure, if something like fasting and low carb works and you feel as good as I do, then the whys and how's, negate the need to find the answers. Sometimes you just need to move on and live your life. I have accepted that a lot of food is poisonous to me because my tolerance to them is really bad. So I avoid them. As in exercise, if I avoid strenuous exercise and do moderate exercise, the same cause and effect as eating carbs happens. Once the trigger, is switched on, my pancreas goes into overdrive and insulin floods my blood. Insulinoma and hyperinsulinaemia can be the precursor to prediabetes and T2. If this is found to be the cause, why is it not tested for more often? Hormone imbalance, is still not really understood, that's why the whys and how's are still in debate and not understood. You, like me have to find our own way with how we deal with our conditions. Best wishes. [/QUOTE]
