[QUOTE="Member34835, post: 2292312"] If you are trying to add muscle and improve blood glucose then eating more high quality whole proteins will help you e.g. chicken, fish, eggs, meat, nuts. I do not know where you are or how available these foods are to you? You could add in a couple of snacks post work out and before bed which are a mix of protein and carb without raising your blood glucose provided you bolus for it correctly e.g. a banana with nut butter or (for convenience a protein shake/bar ideally home made or low carb. Or some boiled eggs on a slice of rye bread. Proteins from animal sources are more complete but lentils and oats work well provided you can add some protein to them e.g. porridge with nut butter and lentils with eggs or cheese.... Good luck with your plan! Insulin is an anabolic hormone so you can use a little alongside the snack to help you gain muscle provided you have trained. [/QUOTE]
