What is insulin resistance? (with video)
When a cell loses its responsiveness to insulin, which can happen due to various conditions, it becomes insulin resistant.

Continuous glucose monitors (CGM) provide real-time feedback on your blood sugar. Here's a guide to why they're great, how they work and where to get one.
Dr. Ben Bikman describes how glucose levels impact our body temperature and how glucose spikes can lead to elevated temperature.
This article describes how to optimize your glucose levels while on a plant-based diets using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM).
Sleep quality and quantity have a profound effect on metabolic health. This article describes the mechanisms by which improving sleep hygiene can improve glucose control.
Metabolic health can be improved by consistently making choices that keep glucose levels in a stable and healthy range.
Stabilizing glucose levels can help us control and manage our energy.
Fasting blood sugar levels classify into 3 categories: normal, prediabetes, and diabetes. To be considered “normal,” fasting glucose must be under 100 mg/dl.
Maintaining stable blood sugar is key to optimal metabolic health. Here are 12 strategies to improve glucose levels.
There’s no "ideal" diet for everyone, but a continuous glucose monitor gives you real-time feedback on the foods that work best for your metabolic health.
Alcohol's effect on your blood sugar has a lot to do with context: how much you're drinking, if you're fasting and the type of alcohol.
Introducing the little known prerequisite for achieving physical fitness and long term health.
