Insulin Resistance
Insulin resistance (IR) is a common metabolic condition in which the body’s cells show reduced sensitivity to the effect of the hormone insulin. As a result, the pancreas produces more and more insulin in order to maintain normal blood sugar levels. In the long term, this may contribute to disturbances in carbohydrate metabolism and to the development of type 2 diabetes.
Insulin resistance is often associated with excess weight, especially abdominal obesity, a sedentary lifestyle and genetic predisposition.
