Does the use of exogenous insulin down regulate your insulin receptors to where you may have future issues with insulin resistance
I have competed for the past 7 years never really payed to much attention to my fasted blood glucose which now in a growth phase has fluctuation for 110-97 fasted am but between meals 4 hr measured around 95 -93
With 400+g carbs
I have toyed with insulin humalog mostly and had good results with it
recently in my upcoming growth phase I wanna manage my glucose a little closer my coach
Basically gave me two potions
lantus
Or micro dosing Reta
I’ve brought this up to a doctor and they said the worst thing u could do if your someone who is a bit insulin sensitive is add in a long acting insulin because it’ll down regulate your insulin receptors and in the future worsen your insulin resistance
But I’m not really a huge fan of taking Reta year around I feel like every is just trying to create reason to use Reta / glps along side every phase cut bulk health cycle ecd and I don’t wanna be that guy
