The Need To Reverse Insulin Resistance


By Eliza Mendoza


The need to reverse insulin resistance as a medical syndrome, has never reached such heights as it does today. This is because a great number of people who are diabetic are already showing symptoms of this phenomenon. This is a disturbing trend because this syndrome is usually a precursor of type II diabetes and related diseases. Therefore, ways of reversing it have a potentially great preventive value.

The hormone has everything to do with this phenomenon. Its production is in an intestinal organ called the pancreas and its main purpose is to check the level of blood sugars. This hormone achieves this by chemically enabling body cells to attach glucose on their surfaces. By doing this, the amount of sugars within the blood stream reduces and on the other hand, the cells synthesize energy from the glucose particles. Cells develop this problem when they fail to infuse glucose into their systems.

A number of efforts can be used to reverse this situation. First, diagnosed people should take on physical exercise so that they can be able to reduce weight. This is because being overweight leads to some fats being deposited in the blood vessels. This leads to a substantial increase in blood sugars further worsening the situation. Exercises also revitalize the cell receptors in performing their functions well.

Following this, individuals should watch the type of diet they take as it also carries great weight in fighting the issue. Foods that are highly processed and those that have many sugars are to be blacklisted in their menu. Instead, a diet that contains the right assortment of nutrients responsible for several functionality in the body's metabolism should be encouraged.

As a back up to the diet taken, one should take several natural nutritional supplements. Recommended supplements have been known to have several capabilities of restoring balance in insulin and glucose levels. For example, magnesium helps in glucose metabolism but it is usually deficient in obese people. Therefore, intake of magnesium, usually found in green leafy vegetables, should be highly promoted.

Managing stress levels also aids in containing the situation as it plays a big role in blood sugar imbalances. The body releases chemicals that interfere with insulin properties whenever one is stressful. Individual's doctors should therefore prescribe therapy as is required.

As a last measure, individuals should use medications prescribed by their doctors. There are mainly two categories of drugs, which work in different ways. The first helps in lowering blood sugars by making cells more responsive to this hormone. The second reduces absorption of sugar in the intestine thereby reducing its absorption after meals. Rightfully so, new drugs enter the market every day.

These are all preventive methods that should be adapted for the mitigation of the effects stated above. Failure to early reverse insulin resistance leads to difficulties in the protection and saving of lives. This is because diabetes subjects deadly effects to the patients.
