Today, we’re going to talk about a common question many people have about low-carb diets like the ketogenic diet. Does low-carb and low insulin equal low muscle mass?

It’s true that insulin is anabolic. What is anabolic? Anabolic is a condition where your body is building up muscle proteins. 

The reason bodybuilders do carbo-loading is not to build muscle. It’s to build glycogen. The problem is that when you start spiking insulin, you’re going to create insulin resistance. Insulin resistance means that your insulin is not working like it should. One of the purposes of insulin is to absorb amino acids because it’s anabolic. But, if you have insulin resistance, you’re not going to absorb the amino acids that well. 

When you do low-carb or keto you and intermittent fasting:
 • Improve insulin resistance
 • Improve insulin sensitivity
 • Start to absorb amino acids and proteins
