Insulin resistance is frequently a silent contributor to a number of widespread chronic health conditions, including Alzheimer’s, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. In fact, a startling 88% of adults experience some degree of insulin resistance. The condition is both pervasive yet easy to miss, making it that much more critical a topic to address.
