[QUOTE="GlazedDoughnuts, post: 347292, member: 46782"] Hi All, I've been doing a bit of research into Insulin & protein synthesis, most of which I've read suggests Insulin supports protein synthesis. Great, so does our basal Insulin cover this alone or do we need carbs with every meal (in order to use fast acting Insulin/trigger a natural response for non-diabetics) in order to synthesize protein? Sorry if the question is a bit vague, but what I'm trying to get at is could one who is a diabetic and on a low carb/ketogenic diet synthesize protein to retain muscle mass/build new muscle mass without the use of fast acting Insulin? Cheers. [/QUOTE]
