[QUOTE="Walking Girl, post: 2121962, member: 510059"] Yes. Except I’m pretty sure it’s the increased fat, not decreased carbs. It’s certainly not a 1:1 relationship, but eating LCHF for several days increases my FBG considerably - from say 85 to 110, plus my dawn phenomenon comes right back. And my postprandial response is much worse. I can see it all on my Freestyle Libre when I use it. I’ve never tried to push through long-term, a few months was enough to call it a failed experiment. It a balancing act. Also, keep in mind, my “carb” consumption is vegetables, beans, nuts/seeds, some truly whole grains and fruit. We’re not taking bread and cookies - that was clearly a metabolic dumpster fire for me. [/QUOTE]
