No it doesn't but he doesn't show any symptoms of hyperinsulinemia. Neither do other long term fruit eaters. He is losing weight and his blood pressure is actually going down. I've seen other blood work from people on the same diet and they don't have elevated cholesterol. These are the only listed symptoms of elevated insulin levels and they seem like a strike out.

Also most references to this condition are on Low-carb and paleo-diet websites so I would imagine they are more of a propaganda tool than an actual illness.
