Insulin weight gain only means rise in the weight level
due to insulin, which is unfortunate. Insulin hormone is secreted by the
pancreas that helps the body utilize blood glucose (blood sugar) by
binding with receptors on cells as if a key would fit into a lock. Both
type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes occur as the body can not produce or
can not use the produced insulin, leading to diabetes. Insulin to the
body has to be provided from outside for diabetes cure and to improve
the symptoms of diabetes. But, one side effect of it is insulin weight
gain. When your blood glucose level is high, your kidneys try to remedy
the situation by excreting glucose in your urine. Insulin provided from
outside reverses this process as blood glucose levels return to normal,
which can contribute to weight gain. For further details, read Insulin
Treatment To Cure Diabetes.
Over 80 million
Americans are suffering from insulin weight gain and resistance. But,
women who develop insulin opposition are the worst affected. These women
are at a much greater risk of obesity, diabetes, hypertension, heart
disease, breast cancer and alike. As women anticipate menopause, they
become increasingly infatuated by carbohydrates and find it easier to
retain insulin weight gain, especially around their waists.
To
counter weight gain, you have to reduce your calorie intake and increase
your physical activity. If you try to reduce your insulin dosage without
diabetes diets to control weight, you may suffer from diabetes
complications. You can also use diabetes medication i.e. prescribed
diabetes medicine which are not associated with weight gain such as
glimipiride, glibenclamide, gliclazide, glipizide, repaglimide and
acarbose. Lowering your blood sugar with insulin or oral medications may
lead to weight loss. But, it is always better to consult with a
physician and keep regular exercise going, to tackle insulin caused
weight gain.
