The Unholy Trinity of Insulin Resistance
Insulin resistance is a significant factor not only in diabetes but also in numerous modern ailments like cancer, Alzheimer's, depression, heart disease, infertility, sexual dysfunction, acne, and more. The primary causes of insulin resistance are elevated insulin, stress hormones, and inflammatory proteins. These factors can cause insulin resistance in isolated cells in rodents and humans.
