If someone has insulin resistance does this always lead to diabetes?

Not always, but for most people who are over the age of 25, insulin resistance is usually a good indicator that you are at risk for diabetes as an adult.

Insulin resistance usually occurs in people who are overweight, hypertensive, and high cholesterol. Some times, as with my good friend, it is hereditary and has nothing to do with body make up.

I am "type one" and I am insulin resistant due to weight and number of years with the disease, so you can have both. Either way, you really need to watch what you eat.

no excess weight can lead to diabetes and if you have insulin resistence it's time to see the doctor because this is serious.

Yes, it is an early indication of Type 2 Diabetes. Diet changes and exercise can help but chances are good it will eventually require medication and/or insulin injections in the future. Get with a good MD who can help you understand and manage the condition.

Yes.

If u are insulin resistant you are most likely to get either Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes. Insulin Is what u need to survive baby.

I being insulin resistant is being diabetic.

If you are not a diabetic,how do you know that you have an insulin resistance?

sidenote.. I understand that a certain variety of cinnamon, not the standard kitchen variety. can help with insulin resistance. The type I refer to is in the supplement department at walmart .
