Fasting aids in lowering insulin levels, allowing cells to heal from insulin resistance, a condition where cells resist insulin's instructions. Normally, insulin signals cells to absorb glucose for energy, but in insulin resistance, this process falters, leading to high blood sugar levels and diabetes. Intermittent fasting tackles this issue by reducing insulin exposure, promoting insulin sensitivity. For effective fasting, it's crucial to avoid anything that significantly raises insulin levels, like food. While fasting poses challenges, strategies such as hydration, bone broth, adding fat, adequate sleep, and staying busy can ease the transition. Planning ahead, involving family in meal prep, and navigating eating out are also helpful tactics for success.
