Apply Smart Ways To Help Reverse Insulin Resistance

By Mattie MacDonald


Individuals are always in a continuum between disease and health. Some of the illnesses are chronic while others are acute. Diabetes is an example of a chronic illness. In this case, individuals are not in a position to control their blood sugars and therefore it fluctuates abnormally. One cause of this fluctuation is resistance to usual control mechanism; this far, it has been established that one can reverse insulin resistance by simple interventions like diet and exercise moderation.

The first strategy involves eating habit. When sugar rich diet is consumed, there is usually a sudden rise in blood sugar promoting release of insulin to control it. When this fails as in cases of resistance, sugar in blood becomes chronically high. To avoid this, one therefore needs to consume much of protein and fatty food and stay away from carbohydrates. This effectively assists in manning blood sugars.

A second strategy is exercise. By performing adequate exercise, an individual burns the excess of carbohydrate in vascular system. This has the effect of controlling its concentration. In such activity times, body cells take up and utilize much of the free sugars thereby limiting its levels in circulation. In addition to this, exercise has been demonstrated to limit adrenalin production from the adrenalin cortex. This prevents the high release of triglycerides by liver and consequently controls the disease.

When these two mentioned aspects are carried out side by side, they appear to have an additive effect to overall success. Exercise is best in achieving temporary control but may be very effective when used consistently and alongside diet control. Better still, exercise serves to reduce production of adrenalin from adrenal cortex. This effect limits release of triglycerides into bloodstream from the liver. As a result, no additional carbohydrates are added to general circulation.

Adequate sleep and proper stress management is equally significant as a remedy against insulin resistance. A sleep time of up to eight hours a night is just enough. When the body is well rested and not in distress, there is no release of stress related substances which trigger rise in blood sugars.

Better still, it has been proven that nutritional deficiency contributes to this resistance. Most important among the involved food components are vitamin B6, glut-amine and chromium. If need be, these components should be supplemented to reduces occurrence of resistance in the population. Other food components and or nutrients include manganese, magnesium and vitamin B group among many more.

Some more useful tips to manage this condition include avoidance of caffeine, alcohol and tobacco smoke. All these mentioned substances lead to increased production of triglycerides and hence high levels of carbohydrates in vascular system.

In summary maintaining good health is essential and all persons should make their responsibility to achieve acceptable standards of health. On a similar note, it is worth noting that people can easily maintain or restore health simply by adjusting their lifestyle. It may sound difficult but worth doing. For instance, a person who is diabetic and also alcoholic must stop drinking alcohol and choose good health. Otherwise, even the use of drugs to control this disease may not bear any fruit.
