Insulin resistance presents a significant metabolic challenge that affects blood sugar regulation and contributes to type 2 diabetes when cells stop responding effectively to insulin signals.
• Functional medicine approaches address root causes rather than quick fixes
• GLP-1 hormones help regulate blood sugar by enhancing insulin secretion
• Natural methods like whole foods and fiber support metabolic health
• Strength training and aerobic exercise improve glucose uptake
• Chronic stress contributes significantly to weight gain and insulin resistance
• Sleep quality directly impacts metabolism and cortisol regulation
• Key symptoms include increased hunger, fatigue after meals, and difficulty losing weight
• Insulin resistance affects brain function and may contribute to dementia
• Diagnostic advances include metabolic scoring to determine insulin sensitivity
• Prevention strategies include anti-inflammatory foods and daily movement
