7-Day Glucagon Activation Plan

Dietary protein stimulates both insulin and glucagon, but in the absence of high carbs, the net effect favors glucagon for fat mobilization.

Insulin inhibits glucagon. Keeping insulin low via low-glycemic foods is the primary switch to turn glucagon 'on'.

Specific amino acids like arginine (found in meat, nuts, seeds) are potent stimulators of glucagon secretion.

During fasting, glucagon rises to maintain blood sugar. Short daily fasts exercise this pathway.
