You're lucky. I tried not to eat carbohydrates at all and it didn't lead to anything good, and fats are a separate hell for my insulin therapy, it's easier for me to give up fat, because I can perfectly control carbohydrates, and fats slow down insulin so much that after eating it I think I'll die before my insulin worksThe only foods I eat are animal proteins and animal fats. "No carbs whatsoever. If you don't eat anything, you'll feed and get your energy from your own muscle and body fat by the "gluconeogenesis pathway", it's a process that transforms non carbohydrates. Carbs are not essential, we do not need to ingest any plants, grains, fruits, seeds, sugar, honey or any other form of carbs.
Or the protein and even fats you’ve eaten if there are no carbs via gluconeogenesisThe glycogen stored in the liver is derived from the glucose in the food you have eaten by the process of glycogenesis.

I thought that's what I said it is derived from what you have eaten.Or the protein and even fats you’ve eaten if there are no carbs via gluconeogenesis

And then when needed the glycogen is broken down by glycogenolysis back into glucose to be passed back into the blood.
Glucose isn’t in proteins and fats. It’s made from it in the right circumstances Ie Gluconeogenesisis derived from the glucose in the food
Depends on your definition of derived I guess.

@Zhnyaka ,A very stupid question, but is glycogenesis even possible without insulin? I don't know very well how glycogenesis occurs, but I know that insulin restores the ability of the liver to produce glycogen
so insulin has nothing to do with it? Thank you, a very useful video, although my knowledge of chemistry is not enough to understand it completely.This might help..?
Well??so insulin has nothing to do with it? Thank you, a very useful video, although my knowledge of chemistry is not enough to understand it completely.

I meant glycogen is not synthesized under the action of insulin. I read that in 1921 it was a cool discovery when it was discovered that after the introduction of insulin in the liver of an experimental animal there was glycogen. God forbid to give up insulin, I want to liveWell??
We still all need insulin. In our case “basal.” Or sometimes a correction dose of bolus if things get out of hand?
The glycogen dumped back into the bloodstream still needs processing to start the cycle again..
Not disagreeing from my quarter that carbs are “non essential.” (Apart from a hypo that comes with the territory as a exogenous insulin user.)The only foods I eat are animal proteins and animal fats. "No carbs whatsoever. If you don't eat anything, you'll feed and get your energy from your own muscle and body fat by the "gluconeogenesis pathway", it's a process that transforms non carbohydrates.

The question is confusing, perhaps... The Randle Cycle exists, is confirmed to exist, and works in a set manner precisely in order to protect your cells from glycation damage. Its not something you can 'believe' in or not with any more actual effect on the reality of it than whether or not you believe in the moon... The moon is there, it is a fact, and it it behaves predictably. Hope this helps.It's a simple question about the Randle Cycle. Do you believe it or not? What is your take on it?
Where is this information from? My understanding is that glycogenesis can and does occur without the presence of insulin (although if you have high BSL and insulin it can happen that way as well). I'm thinking that the Cori Cycle has something to do with it but would like further information"A very stupid question, but is glycogenesis even possible without insulin? "
glycogenesis, the formation of glycogen, the primary carbohydrate stored in the liver and muscle cells of animals, from glucose. Glycogenesis takes place when blood glucose levels are sufficiently high to allow excess glucose to be stored in liver and muscle cells. Glycogenesis is stimulated by the hormone insulin.
