>> Keto diet

The goal, I believe, is to not have glycogen storage in the liver — that when released into the blood remains unregulated due to insulin deficiencies. The alternative form of energy would be, as you know, from ketones.

>> article: “They all improve blood sugar control by preventing the muscle from burning ketones as a fuel source.”

That makes no sense to me

I’m not a doctor, but I’d think forcing cells to use glucose is the best way to pull glucose out of the bloodstream.

Diabetics have dysfunctions that make using all that excess glucose too difficult.
