Still hoping for an answer on this.  Can anyone help?

> Todd > according to what I've read, if BG is above about 83 mg/dl, the pancreas will produce some insulin to push it down.  So that implies that the pancreas "thinks" BG should be less than or equal to 83.  That some of us can't get it there is basically a sign of insulin resistance.
