@Likewise Great advice ! I am down that road too: low carb chocoholic (now moving on to cocoa nibs) with 6 hours of feed window 5 days a week.

I am 58 years old and insulin resistant. The above nutritional changes plus 40 min of strenght/cardio training every other day, have given me a new lease on life.

My own two bits: walnuts, pecanas, macadamias and avocado provide a lot of healty fats and Omega3/6 balance. When taken at the end of the feeding window, they make the 18 hr fast a piece of... err meatpie !

I also make my own cannabinoid extracts. Non psychotropic ones such as cannabinol CBN (main CB2 receptor agonist) and CBD from flower (no hemp) help regulate blood sugar, stabilize mood and protect my liver, spleen colon and pancreas.

Gladly surprised to find your testimony as health does not seem to be a priority for mastodon people...

One of the critical roles of ALA is its capacity to regenerate other antioxidants, a sort of 'recharger' for these vital substances. This means it may bolster our defenses against cellular damage and aging. A study published in the 'Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism' found that ALA supplementation improved #InsulinSensitivity in patients with type 2 diabetes, spotlighting its potential in managing blood sugar levels.
