I am slightly worried about some above refer to gluconeogenesis as something taking place when eating e.g. fried eggs. That is simply ******** when you understand the biochemical science going on here. Especially as we hear also how
@Lydia13 at the same time enjoy a great slice of toast with it. The gluconeogenesis takes place mainly in the liver and to a lesser extent in the cortex of your kidneys. And this process will
only take place
if you are in the state of starvation or a prolonged low-carbohydrate diet where there are simply no carbs coming in to fulfil the body need. Also possible though if you do extreme sports, where you burn off all your body glucose with intense exercise and is in the endergonic zone. Your muscle tissue is then ultimately broken down to provide energy to keep going. I cant recall from my studies if you even need the insulin at all for the gluconeogenesis to happen, but happy to go back and check it out if sincere interest.
To summarize: Eggs aren't going to raise your blood sugar in any meaningful way, as 1 big egg contains around just 0.5 g of carb.
