Insulin Resistance: The Root of All Evil

 Central to the theme of this blog is the concept of insulin resistance, which along with insulin itself, I'll identify as the cause of a great many problems.  I'll start with the basics. As I mentioned before, insulin is secreted by cells in your pancreas in response to elevated blood glucose levels, which in turn are caused by dietary carbohydrates.  Your body converts digestible carbohydrates into glucose, which is what stimulates the release of insulin, and that insulin is necessary for your body to make use of the glucose and manage your blood sugar levels.  When tissues become insulin resistant, their ability to make use of blood glucose is impaired, leading to a whole range of problems. There appears to be a very influential genetic component to the risk of developing insulin resistance (IR), but no specific cause has yet been identified to everyone's satisfaction.  A great deal of evidence exists to support the (intuitive) hypothesis that it's caused by ...

Type 2 Diabetes: The Last Phase of Insulin Resistance

 I've covered insulin resistance (IR) and mentioned its relationship to type 2 diabetes, but I need to discuss diabetes in a bit more depth, if only to establish a background for future posts. A central and controversial thesis behind this blog and many of the ideas behind low-carb diets is that tissues become insulin resistant after prolonged exposure to elevated insulin levels, caused by a diet high in carbohydrates.  That's a bit of an oversimplification, but that's the gist.  I'll go into greater depth shortly to back up that assertion.  Central to this post in particular is the idea that type 2 diabetes is nothing more than the final (insert pregnant question mark here, and anticipate a future post) phase of IR, in which all major tissue groups have become insulin resistant. Both conditions are well-known to correlate with metabolic syndrome or syndrome X, and as seen here and elsewhere it's all been long thought to be caused by obesity.  As far as I can te...
