So after being on keto for about a year and a half I had noticed my elevated morning fasting blood glucose levels and learned that it was most likely something called physiological insulin resistance (or adaptive glucose sparing) which is basically my fat adapted muscles rejecting glucose such that it accumulates in the blood serum rather than being absorbed by the muscles, especially in the morning. Now though I have found that it seems to be at a steady 5.8 to 6.1 millimolars all day.
About 2 months ago I began eating more carbs and gradually transitioned to non keto. It has been totally fine and my energy levels are great. Incidentally I have found that my body still jumps into ketosis very easily. It’s actually hard to stay out of physiological ketosis if I’m trying! Fat adapted indeed.
Here’s my question
I’m curious to know whether anybody might have any links for studies on how long this physiological insulin resistance might last for after leaving ketogenic diet for more carbs. I’m slightly concerned that this high blood glucose circulating can’t be doing too much good.
