I am working on fixing my impaired liver function and glycogen storage. From reading through lots of post/threads, seem that an approach with no starch, low fat, and fructose use above sucrose, along with thiamine and caffeine should help.
When I use pure fructose during the day and before bed, I get an adrenaline response (very hot sweaty, wide awake, feeling wired) about 2-3hrs later especially when trying to sleep. But when I use sucrose i can go about 5hrs before I get a cortisol response (slight waking, feel cooler but rested).
I was thinking that fructose would be more beneficial, but does not seem to be able to keep blood sugar stable very long, keeps cortisol down, but then a big adrenaline dump.
I am getting lots of calories, and in the process of gaining weight like most who jump into Peat with a fatty liver...
Any thoughts on why pure fructose would not help with blood sugar stability?
