Clinical Protocol

7-Day GIP Regulation Plan

A targeted strategy to modulate Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP), reducing fat storage and improving post-prandial metabolism.

Protocol Objectives
Carb Control

GIP is primarily stimulated by glucose intake. Low-carb or low-glycemic meals significantly blunt the GIP response.

Fat Quality

While fat stimulates GIP, healthy fats (olive oil, avocado) combined with fiber have a more favorable metabolic impact than saturated fats with sugar.

Avoid 'Carb+Fat' Combos

The combination of high carbs AND high fat (e.g., donuts, pizza) creates the massive 'supra-physiological' GIP spikes that drive fat storage.

Fiber First

Eating fiber before carbs (a 'fiber preload') creates a mesh that slows absorption and lowers the GIP surge.

Day 1 Separation Diet
Breakfast
Omelet (No Toast)
Protein/Fat only (low GIP).
Lunch
Grilled Chicken Salad
Greens provide bulk.
Dinner
Salmon & Broccoli
Avoid combining with rice/potatoes.
Day 2 Low Glycemic
Breakfast
Chia Pudding
Very low glucose impact.
Lunch
Lentil Soup
Slow carbs moderate GIP.
Dinner
Zucchini Noodles & Meatballs
Satisfying without the starch.
Day 3 Healthy Fats
Breakfast
Avocado & Smoked Salmon
Healthy fats promote satiety.
Lunch
Sardines in Olive Oil
Pure protein/fat meal.
Dinner
Steak & Asparagus
Classic low-insulin/GIP pairing.
Day 4 Fiber Preload
Breakfast
Celery Sticks before Eggs
Fiber first blunts response.
Lunch
Side Salad before Sandwich
Use low-carb bread if possible.
Dinner
Broccoli Soup before Chicken
Liquid fiber coats stomach.
Day 5 Plant Focus
Breakfast
Tofu Scramble
Plant protein.
Lunch
Black Bean Bowl
High fiber controls absorption.
Dinner
Cauliflower Steaks & Hummus
Nutrient dense, low carb.
Day 6 Lean Protein
Breakfast
Egg White Frittata
Focus on protein over fat today.
Lunch
Turkey Breast & Cucumber
Hydrating and light.
Dinner
White Fish & Spinach
Very low stimulatory meal.
Day 7 Metabolic Reset
Breakfast
Black Coffee & Walnuts
Minimal stimulation.
Lunch
Big Kale Salad with Seeds
Volume eating.
Dinner
Roast Beef & Green Beans
Simple, whole foods.

Protocol Guidelines & Science
The 'Incretin Effect'

GIP is responsible for the 'incretin effect' where oral glucose stimulates more insulin than IV glucose. Controlling oral glucose intake is the primary lever.

Processed Food Warning

Processed foods are chemically designed to spike GIP. Stick to whole, single-ingredient foods to reset your sensitivity.
