40 Top Recipes for The Insulin Resistance Diet Attention: Free kindle ebook for every eprback copy you buy ]Insulin is a hormone made in the pancreas, an organ located behind the stomach. Its main role is to regulate the amount of nutrients circulating in the bloodstream.
Although insulin is mostly implicated in blood sugar management, it also affects fat and protein metabolism.
Sometimes our cells stop responding to insulin like they are supposed to. In other words, they become "resistant" to the insulin.
This condition is termed insulin resistance, and is very common.
When blood sugar levels exceed a certain threshold, a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes is made. In fact, this is a simplified version of how type 2 diabetes develops. Insulin resistance is the principal cause of this common disease.
The recommended diet for this condition is: green vegetables like broccoli, zucchini, eggplant, carrots, capsicum, celery, cucumber, lettuce, tomato, onion, shallot, leeks, green beans, asparagus, bok choy, choy sum, snow peas, mushrooms, bean sprouts, alfalfa sprouts, rhubarb, leeks, chives and if you can stomach them, you can have cauliflower, Brussel sprouts and cabbage.
