You can also address insulin resistance through diet and exercise. It effectively come from too many carbohydrates not being used in a timely enough manner, chronically raising blood glucose, then chronically raising insulin levels, once enough bodily dysfunction sets in.

Metformin doesn’t address the root cause.

In that case Berberine should do the same thing, and it’s a supplement that doesn’t have Metformin’s side effects.

Diet can beat insulin resistance, but it takes a very strict diet with practically no carbs, little protein, and lots of non-processed fats; some people can handle it, others get very sick from it. Keto+supplements (turmeric, berberine, MCTs) is a safer course, in general.

Our crappy carb-laden modern diet is the root cause of most chronic diseases. Big pharma does not profit from a healthy population.

In your research, do you recall the role that diabetic meds play in the down-regulation of ACE1?

Drugs probably caused bipolar and 99% of all these diseases that never used to exist.

They’ve got a drug for everything and another drug that takes care of the side effects of the previous drug and so on and so on.

I don’t take one damn prescription drug even though Drs have tried to push them. Screwed my knee up pretty bad awhile ago and actually had to sign a letter in the hospital stating I refused the opioids (oxycodone) they were trying to give me.

Get rid of your prescriptions.. you’ll feel much better.

Ease bi-polarism?? Are you nuts? I use both sides of my brain unlike you puny monopolar people. I don’t want to ease it, I want to embrace it. With my doubled brain power, my cranium is so dense with knowledge my head tilts to one side because it weighs so much. We think this is just jealousy talking. Nothing more.

And, if they’re insulin resistant, they’re by definition diabetic.
