Hi ericschmidt, your comment is dead for some reason, so I'll reply here I like Jason Fung's theory best too, but there still are some problems. Its true that I've mischaracterised it somewhat, but he seems to hold several theories at once, for example: * The overflow theory: https://www.dietdoctor.com/new-paradigm-insulin-resistance https://www.dietdoctor.com/new-paradigm-insulin-resistance * The insulin desensitisation theory: https://www.dietdoctor.com/insulin-causes-insulin-resistance https://www.dietdoctor.com/insulin-causes-insulin-resistance The desensitisation theory (eating too many carbs too often without pause we desensitise our insulin receptors, causing increased insulin secretion) has the same problem as the lock-and-key/fat model - how come the liver receptors are still just as sensitive to insulin when it comes to producing fat? There is some inconsistency there, for sure - its either my lack of familiarity with the topic, or a problem with the theory.
