In this podcast, I want to talk about a question I received from someone who was wondering how to reverse insulin resistance.

What is insulin resistance? - It’s a condition where the cells are no longer absorbing insulin. Without insulin, the cells can’t get fuel, so they’re starving. This makes you crave carbohydrates. A signal is then sent to the pancreas telling it to make more insulin. The average person with Insulin resistance has 5-7 times more insulin than normal.

High levels of insulin create: • Starved cells • High blood sugar • Damage in the body

What causes insulin resistance? - Overexposure to insulin (chronic carbs and frequent eating)

How do we fix this problem? - The prolonged absence of insulin.

If you don’t fix insulin resistance: • You’re not going to get weight loss • You’re going to be hungry all of the time

In my opinion, it takes about 3-8+ months to reverse insulin resistance. My guess is that healthy keto with intermittent fasting is responsible for 90%+ of improvements. Healthy keto provides the key nutrients you need to help speed up the process.
