In this episode, Dr. Neal Barnard delves into the rapid onset of insulin resistance and the advantages of a plant-based diet in managing this condition. He notes that insulin resistance can develop swiftly, and one of the initial indications he observed was when he began discussing the adoption of a plant-based diet with patients. He explains that insulin resistance is a key factor in type 2 diabetes and is caused by the accumulation of microscopic fat particles in muscle and liver cells, which originate from food.
