[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 1944499, member: 256617"] We like to keep you busy. Fasting insulin is different to fast blood glucose wbich you are referring to. Just as a reminder your body has background insulin always present and hopefully low. Your pancreas when stimulated by carbs / sugar will secrete the hormone insulin which will attempt to place the excess glucose into your muscles and cells, if there is too much glucose in the blood the liver can store some and further excess can be turned into fat. What you desire is a low amount of insulin present, as high insulin promotes fat and can be a root cause of many nasty's outside of the scope of your query. So getting back to my original post, if you have low fasting insulin you may be in a similar category to the athletes mentioned. You would have to get a private test for fasting insulin if you want to see where you are with this. Nuffield Health can do this test as an example. [/QUOTE]
