[QUOTE="Keith_Simpson, post: 1746258, member: 401116"] Eating breakfast is the only way [aside from medication] to tell the alpha cells in the pancreas to stop telling the liver to dump glucose. I try to use Novorapid to lower my fasting levels before breakfast but the reaction is anything but rapid.. it takes perhaps 2 hours to show usually only a small drop. My take on it is that the liver is not able to absorb glucose whilst it is still being told to dump it & after all, that would normally be logical. Only after I eat breakfast does my glucose level begin to respond properly to insulin, I can only assume this is because the liver has stopped dumping glucose & can now absorb instead. [/QUOTE]
