[QUOTE="MarkMunday, post: 2290761, member: 525839"] Yes, it does, and any carbohydrate that is not immediately used for energy gets pushed into cells where it is converted into fat. This why insulin is known as the anabolic hormone. It facilitates the building of both muscle and fat, both of which show up on the scale. Insulin messaging is also important. The presence of insulin switches fat burning off and fat storage on. This is especially an issue for people with insulin resistance. They have high insulin levels all the time and have great difficulty losing weight. Insulin tells the body to stop using fat because glucose is available. For people with insulin resistance, this may not be true. Symlin can be useful for them. Weight loss is a key benefit. [/QUOTE]
