Having shared previously on insulin resistance, this article is about the opposite or reverse of it , which is insulin sensitivity .

What is INSULIN SENSITIVITY?

It refers to how sensitive our cells are to insulin Insulin sensitivity is about making our cells more SENSITIVE or RECEPTIVE to insulin so it can perform its role . Insulin actually acts like a key that unlocks the cells so that blood glucose can enter easily into the cells to provide energy . The more sensitive or receptive our cells are to insulin, the better we can control out blood glucose levels and reduce the risk of full blown diabetes and it’s horrible complications.

How can cells become more sensitive to insulin ?

• Reduce stress
• Exercise more
• Get more sleep
• Lose weight
• Eat a healthier diet ( quite a large and important area)
• Use of supplements like chromium and cinnamon . There are many other effective and vital supplements
• Herbs and spices like fenugreek

So starting with these steps would play a big role in reversing resistance and increasing sensitivity .

Health is wealth.
