Can high insulin make you fat?


I'm hypersensensitive to carbs and was diagnosed as having had metabolic syndrome since I was very young. I was was a total mess until I went on the Atkins diet. Been doing it for two years and am now relatively fit and trim [lost over 50 pounds] for the first time since I was in my twenties. I also feel better than I ever have, ever! My life has always been plagued with low blood sugar problems, passing out, uncontrollable weight gain [since my early 30s], the whole works, until now.
