Yup
insulin resistance is the enemy, not carbs, or fats
Mid chain or medium fatty acids, coconut oils, olive oils are good for you
Another myth, --- apples are good for you, ----- fructose is a killer
if you need to snack ie. quick energy --- use citric acid based, or vinegar, acetic acid based snacks.
Dear Ethanol:
Could you explain why? Apparently I've forgotten some things from my nutrition and physiology courses...

Citric acid and acetic acid are taken directly into the Krebs (tricarboxylic acid) to be used as energy, no need for insulin as cell membrane transport, so they do not cause insulin resistance
medium chain fatty acids, eg. olive oil provides as much if not more energy than equal wt, sugar with no insulin stimulus. not immediate, 1-2 hours, but energy lasts for 6-8 hrs. vs. sugar at 30 to 45 mins.
