This chapter delves into insulin resistance within muscle cells, explaining how the body responds to inefficient glucose transport with increased insulin levels, potentially leading to negative effects on other tissues. It explores methods to determine insulin resistance, such as fasting insulin level tests and the use of the homeostatic measure of insulin resistance equation. The chapter emphasizes the importance of monitoring insulin levels and discusses the impact of dietary patterns, CGM devices, and the role of exercise in improving insulin sensitivity.
Welcome back to another episode of the podcast!
In this episode, I am publishing my interview with Jordan Lips on the Where Optiomal Meets Practical Podcast centered around insulin resistance.
In this episode we discuss:
- A little about my story
- The definition of insulin resistance
- How to test your insulin sensitivity?\
- Whether you should go low carb to improve insulin sensitivity?
- If you should wear a CGM to measure your blood sugar/insulin?
- Top 6 things to stay insulin sensitive
- If insulin resistance prevents weight loss?
and more.
If you want to learn more about insulin resistance make sure and check it out.
