INSULIN RESISTANCE FROM A PERSPECTIVE: A REVIEW

The pancreas secretes the hormone insulin, which facilitates the entry of blood glucose into the liver, muscle, and fat cells where it is converted to cellular energy. Indeed, one consumes food to get glucose. When one is fasting or otherwise in need, the liver can also produce glucose. The pancreas produces insulin into the blood when blood glucose levels, also known as blood sugar levels, increase after eating. After then, insulin reduces blood glucose to maintain it within the usual range. When cells in the muscles, fat, and liver do not respond to insulin well and can not utilise glucose from the blood for energy, this condition is known as insulin resistance. The pancreas produces more insulin to make up for the loss. The blood sugar levels rise over time. Obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes are just a few of the issues that are part of the insulin resistance syndrome.
