2. Reduce Saturated Fat
3. Move Your Body Daily
4. Prioritize Sleep
5. Be Mindful of Stress
6. Consider Weight Loss
Consider weight loss? How about doing it.
Going low carb and sometimes Carnivore, worked for me. It’s not easy because I love carbs, but you have to do what you have to do.
What kind of confusing obfuscation is this?
Goofy as hell
1. Eat More Plants
-maybe to a degree, if you also don’t buy that 96oz ‘big gulp’ at 711!!!!
2. Reduce Saturated Fat
-completely unrelated!
3. Move Your Body Daily
- good advice but would only be a tertiary benefit to insulin resistance, if it improves metabolism holistically. Otherwise, this is nothing else other than good advice but not pertinent.
4. Prioritize Sleep
- good advice. Not directly pertinent. Rest/recuperation have positive health effect but are not directly pertinent.
5. Be Mindful of Stress
- Stress hormones on a chronic level have obvious health implications. Not directly pertinent to insulin resistence though.
6. Consider Weight Loss
- Probably the best advice in the list, but the long term recovery from insulin resistance will likely be a side effect to effective weight lost which would not likely happen unless indulgent consumption of processed foods were consistently avoided
No reduce SUGAR....or simple CARBS? typical dietician
Those are all really good except the last one. I’ve been considering weight loss for several decades and it hasn’t changed my insulin resistance one bit.
Regular fasting. It’s in the Bible.
Merely “considering” weight loss won’t do much. :-)
Eat More Plants / Reduce Saturated Fat
Both are totally bogus. Insulin resistance is rooted in too many carbs too often. Plants have carbs. Beef does not. Nor can saturated fat cause significant glucose (and therefor insulin) spikes.
I’m not saying insulin is totally unaffected by beef or saturated fat, but it is far less harmful than simple carbs. Starches. Which many plants have in abundance.
“Eating well” is a TERRIBLE source of information on diets!
FASTING is a big one. I did a 5-6 day water fast and my insulin was much more sensitive for months.
Later I lost 40 lbs, so now I’m doing very well.
bump for reference. Sounds like simple and great advice for all kinds of health conditions.
Another fine article from AI Barbie!
Sounds like its directed to 5yr olds....
Of course they don’t even mention intermittent fasting. We eat too much, too many carbs, and we eat CONSTANTLY, never giving our digestion a break.
