Insulin-resistance is a metabolic disorder caused by excess consumption of carbohydrates, more simply known as sugar. Unfortunately, the majority of people do not know why insulin-resistance is a killer. In fact, insulin-resistance has a direct link to the #1 cause of death in the world, coronary artery disease or heart disease. There are an estimated 42% of adults worldwide who are insulin-resistant due to the exorbitant amount of carbohydrates that are available in the food supply. Most individuals do not know they have this metabolic disorder until it becomes a deadly problem in the form of heart attack, stroke, liver cirrohsis, kidney failure and diabetes. 

This is why I am informing you on the topic of insulin-resistance. The biggest threats to your longevity and health are slow and gradual disease processes that takes 10 or more years to develop. Such is the case for insulin-resistance which often times begins during your teenage years when the aging process has not yet caught up with your poor lifestyle habits. By the time issues such as high blood pressure, high cholestrol, obesity, and pre-diabetes show up, you are already in your late 20’s and early 30’s with deeply ingrained programming that make it difficult to change how you eat, sleep, and live out the rest of your life. 

In this series on insulin resistance, I will be covering major research papers and providing commentary section by section for you to enjoy. I say enjoy because everytime you learn something new here, you are one-step ahead of disease with the vibrant power of life on your side. 

Additionally, I will distill the information and provide practical lifestyle tips and guide you though any questions you may have for those who cannot devote much time to reviewing data heavy research papers and commentary. 

Free thinking and critical thought is welcome and you are free to share your insights with your fellow members here as well. 

TLDR;

1. Insulin-resistance is a longevity assassin. 
2. SCIENTIFIC DATA: I will provide you with data and commentary from scientific research papers.
3. ACTIONABLE INSIGHT: I will provide you with practical tips you can implement in your daily life for you and your family without having to read the papers & commentary.

Thank you for reading. I am glad you are here. I am an independent longevity physician and clinical researcher, and your support is greatly appreciated. 

With Love,
