Todd,
I thought insulin was only released with carbohydrate intake....at least
that's what I learned reading Protein Power and CAD and Sugar Busters. Are
they not telling us the whole story, to get their point across that carbs
are bad and protein is good? Or did I miss something. I feel I need to
get my insulin down and hoped eating less carbohydrates would do it.
