Please offer some advice on diabetes with insulin resistance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diet, exercise: The most important treatments for both diabetes and Insulin resistance is to be on a low carbohydrate/starch diet, and do as much exercise as possible to help promote weight loss. If these do not prove to be successful, the addition of metformin can be helpful.
