Insulin and Its Metabolic Effects- 2001 Dr Mercola/Dr Rosdale

Looks like this carbs/insulin model debate has been going on for a while...

I recommend 20 percent of calories from carbs, depending on the size of the person, 25 percent to 30 percent of calories from protein, and 60 percent to 65 percent from fat. You can get beef that is not grain-fed.

Interesting article. Thank you/

You are welcome.

It is interesting to note that Dr Mercola has been consistent thru the years, despite being labelled as a quack by some...

The Rosedale diet was a key element to getting bg control. Protein was not a free food haha.
This is exactly why I eat the way I do. So I can take very small doses of insulin. He also talks about the MTor pathway being the pathway to disease and eating more than 3 oz protein at a time, or too much protein in general leads to disease. I know I need to bolus for protein and split the bolus if over 3 oz showing protein does spike insulin. Almost as much as carbs. I prefer a nice fatty meal
