Diabetes is a health issue for many people. Join Sarah Holmes for a discussion of diabetes and how to work with and live well with this disease.
In our society, this is an ingrained idea that fatness causes diabetes and when you lose weight, you lose diabetes, fasting sugar is a great way to loss weight, this is what the research suggests. Certainly there’s a correlation between weight and diabetes. About 70 to 80 percent of people with diabetes are fat. This correlation, however, doesn’t mean causation. For instance, baldness is a risk factor for heart disease, but that doesn’t mean that if you give a bald man a toupee, you’ll reduce that risk. It is increased testosterone that promotes both premature baldness and atherosclerosis. kratom potentiators is supposed to have some very powerful medicinal properties and could be helpful in increasing energy, improving concentration and also for helping insomnia.
t’s very likely that diabetes and fatness are caused by insulin resistance rather than the other way around. Just because fat people are more likely to have diabetes doesn’t mean that fatness causes it. People who are insulin resistant also gain weight and also develop diabetes, and the other side of that is if you have type-2 diabetes, your blood glucose will go down after a skipped meal – that doesn’t mean that weight loss is causing blood glucose.
