New study about the Insulin Response to Fat. The study, published in Cell Metabolism is the first large-scale comparison of how different people produce insulin in response to each of the three macronutrients: carbohydrates (glucose), proteins (amino acids) and fats (fatty acids).

When it comes to managing blood sugar levels, most people think about counting carbs. But new research shows that, for some, it may be just as important to consider the proteins and fats in their diet. The study is the first large-scale comparison of how different people produce insulin in response to each of the three macronutrients: carbohydrates (glucose), proteins (amino acids) and fats (fatty acids). The findings reveal that production of the blood sugar-regulating hormone is much more dynamic and individualized than previously thought, while showing for the first time a subset of the population who are hyper-responsive to fatty foods.

A number of good articles here explain why Fat is not a Free Food, and why even if you restrict carbs, you can have high BG and Insulin if you still have too much stored energy. Carb Restriction is Symptom Management.
This study may explain why a higher fat LC diet may have increased my BG, and why a personalized Data Driven approach works so well to lower BG for some people.
