I wouldn't even attempt to explain it as the science goes 'whoosh', right over my head, but if you haven't already seen Peter Hyperlipid's series of posts about physiological insulin resistance, they can be found here:Many thanks noblehead, this is really interesting. I'm trying to get my head around it.
Can anyone explain better how the two above mechanisms work ? Unfortunately the term "insulin resistance" is always a bit vague as it refers to an effect rather than a cause, and there is more than one mechanism for insulin resistance .
