which condition results in insulin resistance and a reduction in the production of insulin
When these cells fail to respond adequately to circulating insulin, blood glucose levels rise. The liver helps regulate glucose levels by reducing its secretion of glucose in the presence of insulin. This normal reduction in the liverâs glucose production may not occur in people with insulin resistance.
Diabetes is the sixth. leading cause of U.S mortality and is believed to be underreported as a cause of death.1 Type 1. diabetes is the inability to produce insulin while Type 2 diabetes results from insulin resistance. combined with insulin deficiency. Diet is a significant contributing factor to the incidence of Type 2. diabetes as well as to a personâs ability to regulate blood sugar levels.
