take it easy
Thank you for your reply. Despite the unexpected strict criticism taking into consideration that this was my first post, it was a useful reply.
Regarding the mentioned drugs, I did not find them such dangerous. Metformin can be used in weight losing regimes (Goodman & Gillman Pharmacology), in addition, Nandrolone, a well-known anabolic steroid, is available legally in my country, therefore I do not find my post such a deliberate crime.
Actually I knew low-carbohydrate diet by a published paper, and what I do is just eating no carbohydrates and a lot of proteins and some fats in addition to using acetone-checking strips and doing some exercises. The mane information resource for me is the Internet. However, I find it simple and really works.
Anyway, the question which is still unanswered is; Are our bodies still consume blood glucose, even while in low levels, instead of using fatty acids?
To be clear, I should mention first that body tissues are able to absorb glucose from the blood stream even in very low Insulin-Glucagon ratio, it is an insulin-independent mechanism. I such a case, we are burning glucose not fat and the liver is producing more and more glucose consuming our dietary proteins. The result is a slow loser.
Certainly, it is not a scientific fact, it is just a hypothesis that needs evidence, and this was my main aim of posting my thread, to ask for your opinions about this claim, is it true, false or still need research. And in case true, what can we do to minimize this undesirable glucose consumption?
Thank you for your help.
