[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2314316, member: 41816"] My suggestion would be that one of the main benefits of intermittent fasting is to reduce glycogen stores in the liver, and by doing so, to ease into ketosis. In which case, tanking up the glycogen stores with chocolate will undo a lot of the benefits of the IF. although I TOTALLY get the desire to fuel up when bgs are lower than normal. where do your bgs normally run at? Your IF may have v successfully reduced some insulin resistance, effectively lowering your bg to ‘ideal/normal for you’. My suggestion would be to replace the choc with something much lower carb, like nuts or cheese. [/QUOTE]
