[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2214814, member: 41816"] Hi and welcome to the thread :) As others have said, the simple answer is, it varies. :D We all live in the real world, not a laboratory, and for that reason our blood glucose fluctuates throughout the day. That is perfectly normal, and happens to everyone as our own bodies carry out a complex balancing act involving food in, glucose, protein and fat digestion, and releasing different hormones (not just insulin) to control glucose levels in the blood and releasing storing glucose into muscle, liver, and all the other cells that run on fuel. That balance shifts if we go keto, and shifts again if we go carnivore. I choose to do keto carnivore. Others just eat meat and may or may not be in keto. Like [USER=219467]@bulkbiker[/USER] and [USER=496333]@Jim Lahey[/USER] have said, their reactions to food has changed over time. Mine have too. Nowadays I rarely get any significant rise after food, even if it is a large carni meal. Yet my blood glucose does do quite a lot of little ups and downs throughout the day (very small ones) as I go about my normal life. Even little things like going upstairs, taking the dogs for a walk, running about grabbing stuff for a meeting that I think I am late for... My blood glucose fluctuations from a carni all protein/fat meal are indistinguishable from all the other 'life stuff' that happens. I take that as a great success. Providing I stay on this eating regime, I am free of all the ups and downs that previous eating regimes caused. And even if I stray a little - the odd square of very dark choc, a mouthful of a carby food, then that doesn't affect me as much as it used to. [/QUOTE]
