[QUOTE="chalup, post: 1448603, member: 306126"] You are also asking about this diet establishing insulin production. Most T2's actually produce far too much insulin until very late in the game. High insulin levels are as damaging as high glucose levels. Unless you have been tested and know your insulin production is low then assuming your levels are low may not be right. A fasting c-peptide test will tell you how much insulin you produce if you can convince the powers to let you have one. Low carb reduces both BG and insulin levels. Less carb means less insulin needed. High insulin levels also make it very very difficult to lose weight. This is one of the reasons low carb works so well for weight loss for many people. [/QUOTE]
