New Insights and New Therapies for Insulin Resistance

چکیده
"Insulin-resistance" is the hallmark of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, as well as of the "Metabolic Syndrome" which is considered to be the "pre-diabetic" form of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. In Metabolic Syndrome the blood sugar level is normal, but the insulin level keeping it there is higher than normal. It becomes Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus when the early morning (pre-breakfast) blood sugar level is higher than normal, and sugar starts to appear in the urine at various times during the day, particularly after meals. In Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus the patient can still secrete insulin into the blood, but that insulin does not seem to be as effective as it is in normal people.
