      Why? Type 2 diabetes. Elevated blood glucose destroys blood vessels, nerves, and organs. There is also a correlation between elevated blood glucose and decreased life expectancy. I assume you're using HGH, that alone already elevates BG, adding insulin will accelerate or exacerbate it.

      Once your cells start to get desensitized to insulin, BG quickly elevates. Your body tries to compensate by releasing more and more of its natural insulin to maintain homeostasis. If it cannot bring your BG down your beta cells will fatigue and cease to produce insulin all together.

      It's sad in a first time insulin thread NO ONE mentioned blood glucose and getting a meter. Smh.
      And no, I am not using actual hGH. Just mk677 for the past 2 weeks. I will be adding GHRP-6 starting Monday. Will these have the same effect on blood glucose as actual hGH?

      Totally not trying to be rude and please anyone correct me if i am wrong but this is not correct. A U-100 syringe is equivalent to 1ml/1cc. Drawing back to the 50 mark is equal to .5 ml not 1 ml. Even in your comment you stated the U100= 1ml so how could the 50 mark equal 1 ml? And with my comment I just wanted to stress the difference between thinking the same amount of growth and insulin is pinned. For example, drawing back to the 100 mark for growth as oppposed to just the 10 mark for insulin. And now I feel confused lol

      Any specific reason you are using a shake with so much ingredients in it instead of something simple with fast acting carbs? Especially if its making you feel bloated?

      My understanding is that the main benefit of insulin is its ability to shuttle nutrients to the muscles. So my shakes have been consisting of EAAs, beta alanine, creatine, leucine, glutamine, GPLC, and glycerol monostearate in addition to the fast acting carbs. I had some hydrolyzed whey in there but had to dump that after the first 2 shakes. It was just too much lol.
      Would carbs and insulin alone actually be beneficial? I mean, isnt the point of the insulin to pack your muscles full of the additional nutrients?

      I mean a short answer is yes. Carbs are still nutrients and the insulin is helping shuttle that into your muscles. I definitely love creating my own personal preworkout mix with insulin as well I guess. For you if you can somehow pinpoint what’s causing the bloat or that feeling of “this is to much” and cut that out it would be great. Defiantly do like your mix though.

      What I'm looking for here is Just a general principle. I'm not going to buy all those ingredients. The info is waaaaay too much for me. So I conclude that you need carbs in your system in order for insulin to work. The timing of which is all over the place so I'm going to stick to my carbo loading every 4th day, oatmeal, good bread, rice all day and my 50gm post workout carbo drink 5x/wk and just run the Humalog with the carbs at 1iu per 10g carbs. If that doesn't put the fat free non bloated pumped , jacked lean size on, I'll adjust accordingly.

      I tried the carb-only shake today (with a Bang preworkout) and definitely had better results and far less bloating. I think Ill add in something new each day until I found out what it is thats causing the problem. Thanks again for the advice brother.

      Anytime brother. And feel free to keep updating us if you keep adding stuff. It would be interesting to see if there is a specific ingredient that is causing the issue.

      1 unit = 1 iu.
      IU = International Unit

      So if you set your pen to 2 units and injected, you just did 2iu.
