Insulin resistance syndrome includes a group of problems like obesity, high blood
pressure, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes. It could affect as many as 1 in 3
Americans. You might also hear it called metabolic syndrome
Insulin is an important hormone that controls many bodily processes.
However, problems with this hormone are at the heart of many modern health
conditions.
Insulin resistance, in which your cells stop responding to insulin, is incredibly
common. In fact, over 32.2% of the U.S. population may have this condition.
Depending on the diagnostic criteria, this number may rise to 44% in women with
obesity and over 80% in some patient groups. About 33% of children and teenagers
with obesity may have insulin resistance as well.
