[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1003029, member: 30007"] I think you have the benefit of having some beta cells left. My theory is that for some reason eggs invoke an immediate glucagon reaction due to easily accessible amino acids, and with beta cells, you are still able to suppress the immediate action of the Glucagon through Amylin and maybe a bit of insulin. Once your beta cells are gone, these two functions don't exist so there's nothing to block the glucagon. No idea whether that is right though! [/QUOTE]
