Carbohydrate consumption does not result in chronically-elevated fasting insulin in the absence of excess fat consumption.

This is a very strong statement. Can you please share your literature on this claim? I'd love to read more about it.

Dr. Barnard's presentation (the video link) has information regarding the insulin response to carbohydrate consumption in the presence vs absence of excess fat. It has been years since I have read the literature on which he based that presentation, but his book, Program for Reversing Diabetes (available online but which I will not link directly here for DMCA reasons), cites many different sources which you can consult.
