I think that the response of the body to protein is very different when we are in ketosis then it is on a mixed diet and this we see this with insulin as well

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
insulin does rise after a meal of protein in fact it still does we know the protein is insulin genic to some extent it's not completely fat flat
there is a postprandial rise in insulin when we eat protein even on a ketogenic diet but it is it is much lower than what we would expect
if I had had a huge insulin spike with that meat I would not have had anything to run on because there's all the glucose or a lot of the glucose in my blood would have gone down would have been intimacy I'm not taking in any glucose and when I have a big spike in insulin it's gonna shut off the production of ketones I wouldn't have anything for my brain to run on
my sense is that when you are keto adapted that the insulin response to protein is lower because it almost has to be right
we definitely see very low fasting insulin in people on ketogenic diets
