Insulin Resistance and Losing Weight

Insulin resistance can be a major roadblock to successful weight loss, as it can cause the body to store more fat, make it more difficult to burn fat for energy, and lead to cravings for high-carbohydrate, high-calorie foods. However, there are steps you can take to overcome these challenges, such as eating a low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet, exercising regularly, getting enough sleep, and considering fasting or medication. Working with an experienced practitioner, such as a naturopathic doctor or a health coach, can also be helpful in overcoming insulin resistance and achieving successful weight loss.
