3 ways to reduce insulin resistance to help lose weight more easily

HẠ MÂY (Theo aboluowang) |

Exercise, diet and stress reduction are ways to help the body reduce insulin resistance, thereby losing weight more easily.

Exercise properly

Exercising intensively leads to a spike in stress and cortisol levels. This can disrupt insulin signals, making fat accumulate more easily.

Gentle exercise can improve insulin sensitivity. The important thing is not the intensity, but the perseverance and comfortable tempo, making it an easy and lasting habit.

Eat healthy

Diet affects blood sugar levels and improves insulin resistance. A moderate daily carbohydrate diet helps stabilize your spirit and lose weight healthily.

Completely eliminating starch over a long period of time can affect metabolism and lead to weight gain. Although a diet low in carbohydrates in the long term can help you lose weight, it can also lead to anxiety, irritability and depression, negatively affect cortisol levels and even harm the intestinal microflora, hindering weight loss.

On the contrary, eating a moderate amount of high-quality carbohydrates is more beneficial for maintaining a healthy body in the long term.

Reduce stress

Learning to manage stress is one way to overcome insulin resistance. Insulin is like the key to opening the cell door, allowing blood glucose to enter cells for energy production. However, when you have poor eating habits, too much stress or lack sleep, your cells become less sensitive to insulin, leading to insulin resistance.
