[QUOTE="Member496333, post: 2063812"] This could be physiological insulin resistance perhaps. Not the same as pathological. I was the same with protein but I’m currently doing ok with it. The protein thing also seems to be multifactorial. Unused amino acids are either excreted in urine or reconstructed into glucose for fuel...and then reconverted into fat if the resulting glucose is also unneeded. But, I do not know which variables affect this waste/glucose ratio, and I suspect no one does. These systems are so bewilderingly complex that all we can do is piece together what we do know and draw our best conclusions. I’m currently eating hypercarnivore (70%+ animal products) and I’m so far not experiencing the typical fasting glucose rises that I used to see with excess protein (4.8mmol/L this morning). I have been doing some reading that near zero carbohydrate eating changes our metabolic pathways for amino acids somewhat. I reckon I’m doing less than 10g carbohydrate at the moment. Although I am still eating a great deal of dietary fat which will help. Anyways sorry for derailing somewhat... [/QUOTE]
