[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1587128, member: 85785"] Hi [USER=402985]@Fleegle[/USER] You are not as dim as you say, just asking something that can be contrived to be confusing. A lot of metabolic conditions that have a poor first insulin response along with high blood glucose levels, as well as insulin resistance, will be treated with a drug that increases or persuades your pancreas to get your beta cells to push out more insulin to help with your first response. Then because the first response counters the glucose the need for a second response lessens. This is what happens to non diabetic patients with no metabolic conditions. Lowering the insulin stimulating food from your diet helps that first response because the level of glucose is low enough not to trigger too much insulin. That's why low carb works in a non scientific description. No high spikes, lower hba1c levels. More time around normal levels, the endocrine system is happier and healthier. There is a lot more, but that is the basics. [/QUOTE]
