Insulin response is the body’s reaction to an increase in blood glucose levels, during which the pancreas secretes insulin.
Insulin helps cells absorb glucose, which is used for energy. However, frequent and significant increases in blood sugar levels due to carbohydrate intake can lead to insulin resistance.
Insulin response can be measured by analyzing blood for glucose and insulin levels before and after meals.
To control insulin response, it is important to consider the glycemic index and glycemic load of foods.
Avoiding high glycemic index foods, such as sugar, white bread, and sweetened beverages, can help maintain a stable blood glucose level and, consequently, a low insulin level.
On the keto diet, carbohydrate intake is severely restricted, leading to a reduction in insulin response.
Consistently high insulin levels can lead to a number of diseases, including:
The keto diet helps reduce the risk of developing these diseases by stabilizing insulin response.
