Daemnyz@lemmy.ml 12 hours agoThe sugar reserves in your liver are like a last resort of your body when it can’t burn any carbohydrates in the cells. As a type 1 diabetic I can tell you that you shouldn’t fuck with that at all. Messing up your hormones (like insulin) is a really bad idea. Apart from that we obviously consume too much sugar. When your liver dumps all the sugar it saved up it also dumps a heap of the shit it is supposed to filter out. When you get hypoglycemic and your liver takes over, you gonna have a really bad time. When your body burns fat it produces Ketone, which is similar to acetone (or nail polish). In small concentration that’s not a concern, but in higher concentration, like when you don’t consume any carbohydrates, it fucks you up big time. Ketone is the reason why diabetics get blind, lose their legs and develop nerve damage.

I’m not talking about some storage, the liver creates sugar when needed if you want.
Your unfortunate problem has little to nothing to do with the liver.
