Although insulin resistance is the main driver in type 2 diabetes, it is also common in people without T2D. It rises and falls in everyone. It’s just remains high in T2D hence the high insulin secretion and high blood sugars.In people without T2D (including TD1) if you eat meals that are high in carbs your insulin resistance will rise. Stress will also cause insulin resistance to rise too, but it will drop again. It is a natural occurring  phenomenon. Obviously, insulin resistance means you are less sensitive to your insulin, whether it’s exogenous or endogenous insulin so you need more insulin to counter the resistance.</blockquote>
