Insulin Resistance

[JohnnnyBlazzze]

ok say you took 1 large meal. what ever the breakdown is and divided it into to smaller meals. Why would you have more insulin on the 2 meals instead of 1. Yes you would have another "pulse" but your body shouldnt produce a higher total amount of insulin since in theory you are eating exactly the same. it should be 2 smaller pulses instead of one larger one

I think that with the 2 moderate sized meals it is a prolonged insulin release as opposed to the 1 larger meal when you just get the insulin release from that one meal. One could debate the fact of the larger release in the 1 meal or the prolonged smaller release of the 2 moderate meals then that's getting real knitty gritty. I would think that if somebody's primary goal is to lower BF% they would want to go with the 1 larger meal which would fall around pre/post workout to combat losing muscle in a caloric deficient diet. I'm experiencing this in my IF diet and have had successful results in the first 10 days.

Everybody is different, I personally don't like larger meals in a short period of time but that's where I get the best results.

I agree about the cutting part. but since we were talking about insulin resistance. So as Turkish posted. The 1 large release would be better then a lower prolonged for insulin resistance. I'm curious if there is a study or some science behind it.

hey gixxer,

I went back and read all my posts under this thread after reading your post above, and I see that my contribution to this thread has solely revolved around the concept of continuous circulation of insulin in the metabolic system and its downsides concerning cutting purposes, not insulin resistance itself. Title of the thread may be Insulin Resistance but my contribution to the thread has been specifically along the lines of presence of insulin in the system and its disadvantage concerning fat loss from an anatomical perspective.

ok, thanks for the clarification.
