Dropping insulin levels on cut

This is just a question for my knowledge, on a cut how low can you keep your insulin and still make gains or at least maintain the muscle you currently have? I didn't seem to find much info on the subject here but the search bar is also not prime on this site.

Are you referring to how low you can blood glucose levels? If so, most people monitor glucose via a glucometer.

Well yea it's closely related in most people with normal metabolic function, my question is if you regulate insulin to as low as possible you wouldn't store any fat and actually your body would be forced to burn it. Hence certain diabetics can just not inject insulin and they lose weight very quickly but can eat whatever they want . Without insulin there would be no production of fat cells. This is more of something I'm just interested in idk if ill do it on a cut but it has me wanting to know more from people that may have experimented with it.
