80% of people are insulin resistant

It's a silent killer...

If you want to control the deadly condition you probably already have, read this:

Diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and cancer don't just happen overnight.

They are chronic diseases that most often are the result of longterm inflammation.

This inflammation slowly increases over time as a result of worsening insulin resistance.

So what is it insulin resistance?

When you eat, sugar enters the bloodstream.

The pancreas pumps out insulin to help bring that sugar into your cells.

What you eat impacts how high your blood sugar rises and how much insulin is needed.

Eventually the pancreas can't keep up.

The modern diet consists of:
-Processed foods
-High sugar
-Alcohol

These cause your blood sugar to ride a rollercoaster of extreme highs and lows throughout the day.

Your cells become resistant to insulin and like a drug addict your body needs more and more to function.

Insulin resistance happens slowly over time. Some early indicators of it:

-Dad bod (abdominal fat)
-Sweet cravings
-Low energy
-Headaches
-Anxiety

Your abdominal fat is destroying your organs and setting the stage for diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.

Here's 5 ways you can shed that gut and take back control of your health:

There are two types of fat: subcutaneous and visceral (abdominal) fat.

Subcutaneous fat is stored under the skin at the surface level.

Visceral fat is far more dangerous because it wraps around organs, releases inflammatory markers, and produces toxic chemicals and hormones.

You can't touch or see visceral fat but it's the beer belly that pushes out the abdominal area.

It's also common in those who are skinny fat and lack muscle in their upper body with an increased waistline >40 inches in men (think dad bod) and >35 inches in women.

What are the dangers of visceral fat?

Visceral fat is a sign of the metabolic syndrome which includes:
-High blood pressure
-Obesity
-High cholesterol
-Insulin resistance

These often lead to:

-Heart disease
-Diabetes
-Stroke
-Dementia

What are the causes of visceral fat?

1) Too many calories in and too little activity.
2) Alcohol intake plays a major factor in increased visceral fat storage.
3) Genes do play a role in where your body is predisposed to storing fat.
