A member asked:
Does dietary fat (coconut oil/almond milk drink) cause insulin to spike beyond the fasting level if you have not ate for over 8 hours?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Drinking a coconut/almond milk drink will cause an increase in insulin, because there are carbohydrates (sugars) in the drink.
