Steps Needed To Reverse Insulin Resistance

By Lisa Williamson


To reverse insulin resistance is more important today than it was in the past as it has become a widely spread medical syndrome. This is because a greater percentage of patients who are diabetic already have signs of this syndrome. This is a worrying situation because these signs are usually preceded by type II diabetes and associated health problems. Therefore, methods and techniques of reversing it present a big opportunity for the human race.

Insulin is a hormone that, depending on its level, causes diabetes. It is produced in an abdominal organ known as a pancreas and its major role is controlling blood sugars level. The function of this hormone is to assist all tissue cells in attaching glucose particles on their surfaces. This action controls the level of sugars present in blood vessels, and it also enables the cells acquire much needed energy from the breaking down of glucose particles. Insulin resistance occurs when cells become impervious to its effects.

There exist several methods of tackling this problem. Regular exercise is the most preferred method because most victims experiencing this condition are heavy or obese. This is because excess body fats have surplus sugars that signal the pancreas to release extra hormone in order to return its normal levels. By staying inactive, these levels continuously rise to detrimental levels that result in complex health problems.

The victims should also modify and manage well their diets. For a start, diets that are considered high on sugar levels should be scraped from their eating schedules. Diets managed in the approved balance will efficiently exploit the oxidation of sugars in the human body thus resulting in normal levels of insulin and sugar.

Some naturally occurring nutritional supplements are equally important as the diet to be taken. Suggested supplements have a history of being capable to restore the balance in insulin and blood sugar levels. Magnesium, for instance, aids in sugar oxidation but it is regularly lacking in obese patients. Thus, eating magnesium rich food like fresh and green vegetables should be highly recommended.

Good handling of stress levels is vital for combating this phenomenon because stress is a condition that can overturn achievements made by other initiatives. It makes the body produce other hormones that disrupt insulin functionality. One should therefore get the necessary professional help to deal with it.

A number of easily available drugs are recommended for alleviating the effects of this medical condition. These drugs are initially prescribed by doctors and are later self administered. However, their use has harmful effects if used for a long time because of its interference in the hormone's production. In some occasions, several patients experience additional weight. It should be used as a desperate and last tactic in combating the syndrome.

Medical experts suggest that further inquiry into the functions of the hormone has to be undertaken. This was instigated after some new research revealed that it is one of the most important hormone in the body. Further inquiry is therefore important as the problem causes many deaths even with the current achievements in medicine and technology.
