[QUOTE="VictorVillalobos, post: 1311101, member: 353530"] Hi Guys, I am starting this new thread because some of you out there were discussing already to move forward from the simple paradigm of muscle insulin resistance, liver insulin resistance and insufficient insulin production. Here is a more sophisticated model: the eight causes of diabetes. I would like to ask people here, especially those who seem to have nailed down their management of blood glucose, a. Have you identified which problems you have behind your high blood glucose? b. If so, how did you did it? c. What was the solution you used? The eight causes, as explained by Dr DeFronzo in the lecture he gave when obtaining the 2008 Banting memorial prize are: 1. Muscle insulin resistance 2. liver insulin resistance 3. B cell disfunctiona first phase insulin secretion and insufficient insulin secretion 4. Fat cell accelerated lipolysis 5. incretin deficiency/resistance in the intestine 6. Hyperglucagonemia or disfunction of the alpha cells in the pancreas 7. increased glucose reabsortion in the kidney 8. Dysfunctional Brain messaging (for example insulin resistance) Here are two links to overview the model. A short video: [URL]https://www.novomedlink.com/professional-education/clinical-education/the-ominous-octet-core-defects-in-type2-diabetes.html[/URL] The paper: [URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2661582/[/URL] I just emailed to verify if he had major changes to this model from 2008. Will keep you posted. [/QUOTE]
