[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1649532, member: 196960"] To keep it simple IR is a determined by its cause. Pcos, diabetes, dementia and many other conditions are being looked back on and discovering the common denominator. Just like leptin resistance is being investigated too. So far I've found that to improve IR I have to lose weight. Primary. That's because I'm just short of morbibly obese. Bmi 44. I've found I need to find ANY way to lose weight, which will help with my IR. However not everyone has my severe IR. Thin diabetics are proving to be increasing their IR and having diabetes detected early on, unlike mine 40+yrs of it. Even prediabetes is an indication of IR, in some. When I'm losing weight easily I'm doing so because I'm reducing my insulin resistance. For me low carbing and low fat is my ideal diet....for me. End of. So....I found my perfect diet now, I've found a way to lose weight and surgery to help me ferment it...hopefully for life. I can measure my IR by how many insulin units I need. So of course I have high insulin resistance. Nearly 300units of mixed insulin proves that. Goodness knows how much of my own insulin is getting used on top. Insulin resistance has interferred with my hormones and fat building metabolism. Diabetes is just a small part of that. Recently I had my heart checked and luckily it is good but it is well known to cause heart issues too. Excessive glucose and in and our of vessels causing hardening of arteries is just one more small part of diabetes but excessive insulin is questioned for inflammation. I must note I don't have the inflammation my whole family does and of which I'm truely thankful. I must have diabetes instead of inflammation however some diabetics have both but not my heavy IR? Awaiting bariatric surgery most have immobility due to obesity but not due to diabetes or maybe even IR. My immobility is due to bulging discs, scatica and a numb foot/toe which is questioned as of scatica or diabetes. Only one god knows. IR however I can see when I click my insulin pens. [/QUOTE]
