Leptin resistance

[Diakat]

Unless cardiologist has booked it? It doesn't say what it's for.
Unless I must see dietitian when changing insulin?

Probably to run you through carb counting for the bolus...

My son is Steroid Induced diabetic and this was for research through UCL where he was being monitored for Hypopituitarism.

Generally speaking lower insulin resistance will lower lectin resistance. Lectin is a hunger / satiety hormone. Once we achieve lowering insulin resistance and maintain good steady bg then lectin falls into place.


I love his book and it was the key for me to gaining good bg control

Basically a low carb, moderate protein with enough healthy fats to satisfy.

I've noticed by keeping my bgs low with extra insulin my leptin has increased. I'm hugely satisfied, less hungry and can carry out my day without giving food a thought.

I keep wondering how much insulin resistance I have? I wish there was a measurement.
Starting seperate insulins on the 12th may. Hopefully.
So we'll see a bit clearer.
