Why Does Your Body Stop Responding to Insulin?
Dr Amir Khan and Cherry Healey break down what insulin actually does, why insulin spikes aren’t the enemy, and how chronically high insulin levels can quietly lead to insulin resistance, weight gain, inflammation, and type 2 diabetes.
We also find out how ultra-processed foods, stress, and inactivity change how your cells behave.
