[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1781619, member: 41816"] That is a new interpretation I have not heard before! Sounds like she has gone rather off track with her info dispensing! We all have glycogen stores in liver and large muscles for use when needed. The body raids those stores when/if blood glucose dips lower than usual, or in the mornings to give that ‘get up and go’. Nothing wrong with that. But also, no need to eat a set number of carbs to boost the glycogen stores. When not eating keto we can replenish those stores from veg-carbs and protein as well as starchy carbs. When keto, the glycogen stores slowly run down and the body shifts to nutritional ketosis - using fat (ketones) as fuel, and the glycogen stores become largely redundant. Often people find their morning fasting readings reduce over time, as their body becomes fat adapted. The X-pert tutors are supposed to refresh their training every couple of years, and the new training curriculum covers Low Carbing, high fat and keto as valid dietary choices that offer real benefits to type 2diabetics. Sounds like your X-pert lady could do with that refresher!!! [/QUOTE]
