Insulin Resistance Syndrome Symptoms And Cause

Diabetes can be cause by insulin resistance syndrome (IRS) also known as metabolic Syndrome And Syndrome X, this syndrome produce the inability to transport blood glucose properly into the cells to produce energy. The relationship between insulin resistance syndrome and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is very high. This condition is related to some cancer risk in women, heart attack, high blood pressure, stroke, high cholesterol level, fluid retention, decrease memory chronic fatigue, irritability, mood swings, insomnia and other serious complication. This condition and pre-diabetes usually have no symptoms and the person no noticing anything.The patient with this syndrome not use the insulin properly in her muscle, fat and liver cells. The pancreas increase the insulin producing because the body demand are high by the resistance of the insulin. Eventually the pancreas be sick and cause the Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The cause of insulin resistance are probably by several causes and one can be genetic factor. Other common cause of insulin resistance is overweight or obese person, where the excess fat effectively reduces the capacity to use the insulin for the cells to convert glucose into energy. By the time, insulin resistance worsens and becomes evident to the suffere as wild swings in blood sugar lead to a roller coaster effect on energy and hunger, as well.The risk factor to have this disease is anyone 45 years or older, overweight, family history of diabetes or this condition, decrease level of HDL cholesterol and high triglycerides leve, High blood pressure and minority group background like African American, Latino and American Indian.The exercise and diet were shown by the Diabetes Prevention Program to be almost twice as effective as medication (a drug that is known to reduce insulin resistance) at reducing the risk of progressing to type 2 diabetes, which is more or less the end result of insulin resistance. Is obvious association between insulin resistance and excess weight that, despite the fact that insulin resistance is largely a genetic disorder, it is very responsive to dietary and lifestyle changes, especially those that result in significant.You can stop the insulin resistance with increase physical activity and weight loss. This increase the use of insulin by the body and decrease the production of insulin by the pancreas. Change your diet is important eat well,low sugar and fat diet, also be active with exercise activity to helps your muscle cells use blood glucose need it for energy, this action make the muscle cells more sensitive to insulin. With this change in the diet and increase activity the patient go to loss weight, this decrease the insulin resistance. Stop smoking one factor you need to change is very important to control this syndrome and other cardiovascular diseases. We now quitting smokingis not easy, but it could be the single smartest thing you can do to improve your health.
