I've been so unusually Thanksgiving Day dinner FULL, that I haven't wanted to eat. Last night, I listened to a couple of Dr. Annette Boz lectures on the science of this phenomena. Hormones! Specifically, GLP-1 and GIP hormones that are naturally turned on in the body as our glucose goes down and our ketones rise, by eating fatty meat and fasting. GLP-1 is Ozempic and GLP-1 and GIP is Monjoro, only naturally occurring and without Ozempic face. Autophagy is a particularly important part of this because it absorbs and removes all the waste protein, not your precious muscle mass. It was highly informative and interesting.
It's amazing how ignorant I am.
My glucose is 90 and my ketones are 5.2 this morning.
I can tell I'm still insulin resistant, but my glucose numbers are slowly getting lower, and my ketones are getting higher.
