Let's delve into the fascinating concept of insulin resistance as a 2 sided coin, and how it can manifest differently in various cell types

It's crucial to note that insulin resistance isn't a uniform phenomenon. Not all cells are affected equally.

Rather than obsessing over calories, focusing on lowering insulin might be a more effective strategy for weight management. Here's why!

In the previous part of this blog series, we explored the concept of metabolism and its role in daily energy expenditure. We broke down...
