Diabetics (Type 1 only) should technically lower their intake of insulin during a fast. After the body runs out of carb intake -the next step is glycogenlysis (converting glycogen to glucose). In order for this to occur two things happen in the body -1. insulin drops, 2. glucogen increases. Discuss this with your med practioner before actually doing it. Mod 80- Any comments Doc?
