Message: <blockquote data-quote="gowest12" data-source="post: 2620348" data-attributes="member: 558863">So I’ve posted a few times this past year as I was prediabetic and got my hba1c back into normal zone doing low carb and moderate fat but I keep getting told it’s not reversing our insulin resistance it’s just a band aid? I’m getting so fed up with conflicting info and what sort of diet to follow. Up till now I’ve been doing low carb and eating quite abit of fats to fill me up like Greek yoghurt, cheddar cheese and peanut butter. I will post here what someone posted on a glucose support page as it’s something I keep getting told and I don’t know if this is true about fat???its to do with a book called glucose revolution where people are taught hacks how to lower glucose spikes. I’m concerned about something! Isn’t one of the biggest causes of insulin resistance the consumption of excess dietary fats, specifically saturated fats? Sure, if you maintain a lower carb diet, your A1C will be lower and your glucose won’t spike as much. But this is just suppressing insulin action. What actually would be increasing insulin sensitivity would be to limit saturated fats.. I don’t see this talked about often!When a person with T2D or insulin resistance consumes so much as an apple after maintaining lowcarb, their glucose goes to the moon! That’s not curing yourself at all. The true cure would be to regain insulin sensitivity, right? The only way I’ve seen this done is with high complex carbs and low saturated fat..</blockquote>
