Agreed. I’ve recently read all of Dr. Fung’s books, which is why the article caught my eye. I found myself creeping up in carbs, mostly with fruit, in the past year, and it showed with higher fasting glucose numbers.

I’ve been doing 23 hour fasts most days during the work week for the past month and it is helping. Another plus is I’ve busted through a long term set point and lost 10 pounds.
