If you are overweight there is a very good chance that you are like millions of other people who have the Insulin Resistance Syndrome (IRS). In fact, 85% of all heavy people have high insulin levels that characterize the IRS. When you eat food, insulin is produced by the pancreas and goes to the receptor sites that lie in the liver, muscle and fat. People who have the Insulin Resistance Syndrome are not able to utilize this insulin properly because of an inherited obstruction or resistance. This causes the pancreas to produce excessive amounts of insulin which triggers: 1. Increased Hunger 2. Severe Carbohydrate Cravings 3. Abnormal Deposition of Fat in the Belly |
This sequence of events causes increased weight. The heavier you are the greater insulin resistance, and this circular increase in weight goes on and on. This is a merry-go-round we can help you get off, forever.
This syndrome that causes people to be overweight is also responsible for many severe cardiovascular changes. The Insulin Resistance Syndrome is also linked to hypertension, high cholesterol, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and depression. Fibromyalgia is often a part of the syndrome and responds well to the treatment we will prescribe.
