Inside our bodies, our biochemical processes like insulin play a role in regulating our blood sugar levels and fueling cells with energy. However, when this delicate balance begins to get disrupted, it can trigger metabolic imbalances leading to insulin resistance and weight gain.
At Marie France, we understand how insulin resistance can have an impact on hormonal weight gain and overall well-being. Let’s check out its effects on weight management and offer empowering strategies to break free from the cycle!
What is Insulin Resistance and Hormonal Imbalance?
Insulin resistance occurs when our cells become immune to the effects of insulin—the hormone responsible for ushering glucose from the bloodstream into cells for energy production. As a result, the pancreas compensates by producing more insulin to overcome this resistance, leading to elevated insulin levels in the bloodstream. Over time, this cycle of insulin overproduction and cellular resistance can unbalance our hormones, contributing to metabolic dysfunction and weight gain.
Effects of Insulin Resistance on Weight Gain
Insulin resistance extends far beyond its impact on blood sugar regulation. Elevated insulin levels not only promote the storage of excess glucose as fat but also inhibit the breakdown of stored fat for energy, making weight loss an uphill battle for individuals with insulin resistance.
Moreover, it also triggers hormonal imbalances, including elevated levels of cortisol (the stress hormone) and disruptions in appetite-regulating hormones such as leptin and ghrelin, further exacerbating weight gain and metabolic dysfunction.
