if you watch the videos you’ll find that Dr. Fung states that the issue with diabetes is TOO MUCH insulin so to give more insulin is akin to giving alcohol to an alcoholic. His premise is fasting to stop the increase of insulin for long periods of time which breaks the insulin resistance.
People who have been taking Afrezza for their meal time inuslin have seen their BASAL needs DECREASE. You read that right. Afrezza, due to the fact that it is absorbed via the lungs into arterial blood is utilized quicker than injected insulin and mimics the how a healthy and normal pancreas works. It is thought that Afrezza takes a lot of stress off of the pancreas and allows it to gain back more functionality.
The main point is that the inhaled version, a monomeric form of insulin and its quick mechanism of action is FAR superior than injected form of hexameric insulin. People on Afrezza become even more insulin sensitive to the point that many have to REDUCE their basal insulin. That’s a very good thing.
Again watch the MATT BENDALL videos of his use of AFREZZA. Or look up #afrezza on twitter. You will be blown away.
