Well, insulin does promote the storage of food into glycogen and even adipose tissue, so that link makes some sense.

There are a lot of new diets out based on the glycemic index of foods, uring people to eat foods with lower indicies. The reason behind the diets is if you produce less insulin, you store less food. I'm sure how much you eat makes more of a difference, but any diet that promotes fiber consumption is good. I don't envy you girls, trying to eat well and having to cope with your insulin too.
