IN CASE YOU MISSED IT! How to Lose Weight When You Are Insulin Resistant

In this Re Release of Episode 10 on 5/10/23 of the School of Doza podcast, Nurse Doza discusses how to lose weight when you are insulin resistant. He starts by emphasizing the commitment needed to make these changes and encourages listeners to sign up for the newsletter on Nursedoza.com for weekly content and advice. Nurse Doza then explains that insulin resistance is common and leads to inflammation, and provides specific changes that can help with weight loss.

What being insulin resistant means: _inflammation

 

your body is reluctant to release anymore insulin___ (1)

“Insulin resistance is identified as an impaired biologic response to insulin stimulation of target tissues, primarily the liver, muscle, and adipose tissue” (2)

 

“You do not have to be overweight to have insulin resistance” (1) 

 

“The spectrum of disease associated with insulin resistance includes obesity, cardiovascular disease, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, metabolic syndrome, and polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).” (2)

Leptin: “Leptin resistance is defined by a reduced sensitivity or a failure in response of the brain to leptin, showing a decrease in the ability of leptin to suppress appetite or enhance energy expenditure, which causes an increased food intake and finally leads to overweight, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and other metabolic disorders” (1)

 

“A minor increase in leptin concentration reduces the appetite and leads to a decrease in body weight;3 however, in obesity, despite increased leptin concentration, the efficacy of the anorexic effect of leptin is decreased,1,3 with leptin resistance developing due to a defect in intracellular signaling associated with the leptin receptor or decreases in leptin transport across the blood–brain barrier (BBB)” (2)
