long term low carbers?
Hey Question, anyone that's been VLC for more than 6 months, if you 'wanted' to do an OGTT, or test your carb tolerance after all that rest from carbs, how long would you have to 'carb up' for?
I found a post where someone from another forum was Keto for ages, they tested and had to eat rice each meal, for like 4-5 days, then found out they 're-adapted' and had good normal post carb blood sugars. Then went back to keto, the idea is, there are no long term 'pancreas' issues like, it doesn't downgrade, but just rests until you re-introduce it to carbs, then it can ramp right back up.
Anyone else try that? Any insights?
