[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2195190, member: 506169"] There is no conclusive evidence about fasting and BG. The unfortunate truth is that we are all different. My normal overnight fasting 'Dawn Phenomenon' has never been too bad - meaning that even at the very worst my morning BG (even if I overdid the carbs a little the previous night) is still in single figures. But that isn't the case for everybody. For me after a normal 12hr overnight 'fast' and then a no-carb (2 boiled eggs) breakfast, my BG is either lower than before Breakfast, or the same as before breakfast. However if I don't feel hungry and so continue my fast until a late lunchtime, my BG doesn't go up (unlike several members). My definition of a fast is different to some, in that for me a fast means zero macro nutrients - so straight green or black tea or black coffee is allowed, but not coffee with cream/MCTs or any fat, protein or carbs.
