Janet, based on your post I went on a tour of Amy's blog. Well, you know how far down the rabbit hole such searches can take us. LOL

Anyway, I read a couple of her posts about hyperinsulinism and decided to do a little experiment of my own. Dr. Fung says that ingesting pure fat doesn't raise insulin. So I had a healthy dose of fat (baked chicken skin crisps) with my tea, then took my BG reading (86). An hour later it had gone down to (82). If my insulin had gone up, my BG would have as well, right? So even though I can't home test my insulin level, it appears that my insulin level and BG level are riding in tandem. Or?
