[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 685217, member: 102150"] The bottom line is not to scare people who need insulin. That doesn't require lying. But it does require presenting the facts in a balanced way that is mindful of how people can be afraid of going on insulin in a way that is out of all proportion the benefits and risks. I have read credible evidence of high insulin levels leading to metabolic syndrome. However it's very difficult to separate high carbs from high insulin in most the population, ie non diabetics. For my money the only conclusive side effects of excess insulin are hypoglycaemia and weight gain. [/QUOTE]
