[QUOTE="millenium, post: 2033758, member: 410413"] Insulin made driving many nutrients (including protein) into the cells much more effective. From what I notice, the only successful diabetic bodybuilders are those that are using insulin. The abuse or discovery of the value of insulin in bodybuilding stemmed from diabetic bodybuilders. Only in endurance sports have I heard of a few low carbs or ketogenic athletes getting successful. From an evolutionary point of view, humans are likely to be healthier without excessive carbs. But too low carbs maybe compromise brain functioning. I am not familiar with brain functioning on ketones though, so I cannot comment on this. [/QUOTE]
