Reverse insulin resistance naturally

Post

July 16, 2025

WHAT is insulin resistance? It is also referred to as borderline diabetes. This metabolic disorder is a result of the modern-day lifestyle.

Insulin resistance is linked to a higher likelihood of developing several metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia and cardiovascular diseases.

This suggests that timely treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) could delay the onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus and other significant health risks in the long term.

Insulin resistance can be reversed by changing your diet, adopting a healthier and balanced lifestyle, and consuming specific herbal preparations.

This condition is essentially a form of abnormally high blood glucose levels, where the pancreas produces more insulin than usual. However, blood glucose levels remain normal as long as enough insulin is produced by the pancreas to clear glucose from the blood.

Once the pancreas is unable to cope, the blood glucose levels start to rise, initially after meals, and eventually even when one is fasting.

This disorder affects women and men, but is most commonly seen in women. Insulin resistance causes an imbalance in androgens, and results in disorders such as PCOS, a condition that generally affects many women today.

Insulin resistance is now recognised as a basic underlying pathology of polycystic ovarian disease and is found in approximately 50% to 70% of patients.
