    Glossary Insulin Resistance

    condition where cells don't respond well to insulin

    Insulin Resistance (IR) is a condition where the body's cells become less responsive to the hormone insulin, which is crucial for regulating blood sugar levels. As a result, the pancreas produces more insulin to compensate, leading to higher insulin levels in the blood and potentially progressing to type 2 diabetes. This condition is often associated with obesity, physical inactivity, and genetic factors.
