I'm still struggling to understand how this protocol doesn't raise the risk of insulin resistance. Namely because it says it's ok to eat 1 hour before or after pinning.
I'm far from an expert but everything I read prior to this thread said I shouldn't eat for 2-3 hours on either side of the injection. Meaning, if I'm going to inject at 8am, I need to finish my breakfast by 5am or 6am, and the safest earliest time to eat after injection would be 10am or 11am. Was what I read wrong? Or does this protocol add an increased risk of insulin resistance?
If there is no additional risk, I'm considered doing the following:
8:30am - 4IU injection
9:30am - breakfast
11:00am - workout
12:30pm - eat a big post workout meal
For BG control I'm currently doing 500mg of berberine with breakfast (but I'm reading I should probably increase that to 500mg 2-3 times throughout the day with other meals) and 1mg of Reta a week.
