Patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) report a strong craving for sweets
On the other hand, high-sugar intake could also lead to
insulin
resistance
and diabetes, which is discussed as a causative factor for progressive neurodegeneration in PD.

Insulin resistance
Hi guys, What is the name of the test you can get that tests your
insulin
resistance
? It's something I'm wondering if I have and if I can just do a finger prick postal test thing to determine... Anyone else done it/has it? Thanks!

Insulin resistant & query about blood results
I had to nag doctor to increase my dose from 125 to 150mg and now fear although I am starting to feel better in myself that they will reduce dose down again when I see them my blood sugars are also out of range - a clinical trial I took part in suggested I have
insulin
resistance
(or some such) TSH

The 'Brain Energy Gap' and its possible implication on the progress of PD.

-
resistance
-Exercise helps the body/brain to take up both glucose and ketones and helps reduce
insulin
resistance
, so it remains likely to be a significant part of this protocol to reduce PD progression.

Berberine and iron?
Niacin will cause
insulin
resistance
for about 6 months, and I was going to take berberine to counteract that as it has been shown to decrease insulin and HbA1c. My lab 2 weeks ago showed my HbA1c to has increased to a pre-diabetic level, 5.9.

Is this stubborn high sugar and
insulin

a symptom of being hypothyroid?

Liothyronin T3 and insulin resistance
I came across a lot of articles online that Lio can increase sugar and/or
insulin
resistance
as well as making existing
insulin
resistance
worse.

Metformin experiences
Has anyone started Metformin who doesn’t have obvious
insulin
resistance
symptoms? How did you find it? Did it help? My dream would be to start it and fall pregnant naturally, but I know that’s wishful thinking on this TTC journey lol! Thanks for listening. Baby dust to you all x

Coincidentally ...
{ - e.g.
insulin
resistance
. When
insulin
resistance
occurs in the pre-diabetic man, pancreatic beta cells work overtime to overcome the
resistance
- resulting in hyperinsulinemia. However,
insulin
is a growth hormone. At elevated levels it can act as a mitogen via the IGF-I receptor.

Private endo strongly suspects I have PCOS
Today I saw a private endo for the first time who looked at my fasting
insulin
(6.6) and said it shows I have
insulin
resistance
. My testosterone is normal (1.3, 1.7 is top of range). My oestrogen is 521 and my progesterone is low at 15 (day 21 of 27-day cycle).

CAP score of 299, diagnosed with Cirrhosis
I have recently started cleaning up my diet and taking some medicine to reduce
insulin
resistance
. I am extremely disturbed and nervous as I struggle with maintaining a healthy lifestyle. My work takes up all day, with no time for excercise.

Ackkermancia. Is it dangerous in parkinson.
I wanted to consider it for blood sugar and
insulin
resistance
. I did not have access to the full articles in many cases so it was hard to get a clear picture.

Metformin and supplements
Hi all, I have just been diagnosed formally with PCOS and
insulin
resistance
. My gynaecologist has started me on Metformin 500mg once daily for a week, increasing to twice daily after.
