MANY people will scare you into believing insulin use in bodybuilding will kill you.
In fact, some find difficulty in obtaining it because of such concern.
Proper insulin use does not kill. Stupidity and recklessness does.
While frontdouble.com is not suggesting anyone use insulin, this guide has been set up to outline the most optimal way to use it if you plan to, or if you already are using it.
For those who do not know, insulin is a hormone that is naturally produced in the body by your pancreas. The organ releases insulin into the bloodstream whenever you consume carbohydrates. It does this in order to regulate your blood sugar level. Insulin’s job is to transport that glucose [sugar] from your bloodstream and into your cells.
According to the website healthline: “It also encourages cells to take in amino acids (proteins) and lipids (fats) to a certain extent. Insulin also prevents the breakdown of glycogen, protein and fat in your body.”
In this sense, insulin is anabolic. A study published on Pub Med offers a concise explanation: “Insulin is considered to be an anabolic hormone in that it promotes the synthesis of protein and glycogen and it inhibits the degradation of these compounds in muscle tissue. Glucose normally provides energy sources for tissues of the body, its uptake by muscle requires a secretion of insulin. Insulin stimulates the uptake of amino acids into cells and simulates protein synthesis in muscle tissue.”
In an article for bodybuilding.com, Dr Jim Stoppani writes: “From the pancreas, insulin enters the bloodstream and travels to various tissues, including muscle tissue.
