Can non diabetic have hypoglycemia?

Wasn't that too low for a diabetic?

Sorry to hear that, hope he's doing well, btw how old is he and what is his A1c

Like I said, no problem:happy: i wrote to comment on the link that not all type 2 are caused by insulin resistance, because there are many people who are very insulin sensitive, yet they are diabetic and have high glucose, not specifically hope to get you response:happy:, my brother and a member...

You missed my point.....read the link and my previous post again, but no problem if you still don't get it:) Again that's not the case of my brother's, the one i referred to is a member of this forum, and even with HOMA IR of 0.56 that person is not controlling it, because the fasting glucose...

From his lab report and if i remember it correctly his A1c was 7% and his fasting glucose was 129 mg/dL, don't know about his pre meal and 2hr pp. Again I don't know how long he has been type 2 diabetic, but the lab report was three years ago, no medication as far as i know Ehm....what made you...

If they don't produce enough insulin, it is called insulin deficient not insulin resistant, which means they produce LESS than required insulin, the link is about how injecting MORE than required insulin can cause insulin resistance

His fasting insulin is 3.3 and 2 hour after glucose administration is 10.2 mIU/L , if that doesn't mean anything, then what parameter we should use to know that we are insulin resistant or insulin sensitive?

He is 35, and he is type 2 not because i think he is type 2, but his doctor told him he is type 2 as confirmed by his lab result, BTW why do you think that i just think he is type 2:)

Dx T2 12 Jun 18, HbA1c = 54, No meds. Began eating low carb/Keto. 5 Sept 18, HbA1c = 44, Prediabetic levels 3 Dec 18, HbA1c = 42, 17kg lighter and weight stable 29 Mar 19, HbA1c = 43, 26 Jun 19, HbA1c = 40, Normal, non diabetic level! Always wonder, is there anyone here who has succeeded in...

well, i know about those standards/guidelines set by others, just wonder why fung himself who stresses and keeps preaching the important of lowering insulin and insulin resistance does not set his own standard? and i passed most of those requirements, except...blood sugar and HbA1c, my fasting...

Don't want to comment about the diet, but can any of you tell me about dr fung's recommendation for insulin level and homa ir?, i have watched many of his videos where he emphasizes on lowering insulin and insulin resistance, but i can't find the ideal number for insulin and insulin resistance...

Thank you, in my calculation your homa ir is 2.53 as i divide your FBG x FI by 22.5 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeostatic_model_assessment , but you seemed to divide it by 25, where did you get that equation from? What kind of side effects? I used to take Simvastatin, but it gave me unusual...

What is fatty liver? can someone who is underweight all the time and has flat stomach (assuming he has no visceral fat) have fatty liver? My brother who is 175 cm (5' 9") and weighs 54 kg (8 and a half stones) is type 2 or at least prediabetic, fasting BG >120 (6.7) and his total cholesterol...
