cteld said:Maybe you're showing an improved first phase insulin response - I believe that's from stored insulin. So maybe you've built up a store over time due to still-functioning or reviving beta cells. Unless your beta cells are now in tip-top shape, though, that advantage is probably a temporary one as the problem would start again with more carbs than the body can store ready-to-go insulin for, which tends to diminish over time as it tries to play "catch-up" and falls farther and farther behind. I think. Still new at this. :?
I had to read up on that!
If I am reviving beta cells, I will save them for any crazy impulse binges. Luckily, they are much reduced on my new diet. I will stick to my low cabs, and thank you for the scientific answer. Much appreciated.
