Easily Reverse Your Insulin Resistance Naturally:
The Integrative Remission Program
When you eat, your pancreas produces insulin to help cells absorb nutrients. While carbohydrates trigger the strongest response, protein and fat also raise insulin. While carbohydrates trigger the strongest insulin response, protein and fat also raise insulin levels. Over time, insulin can remain chronically elevated regardless of your specific diet, eventually causing cells to become resistant. The pancreas compensates by producing even more insulin, creating hyperinsulinemia—chronically elevated insulin levels. Excess insulin damages arterial walls, triggering chronic inflammation and arterial stiffening. This drives hypertension as vessels lose elasticity and become less responsive. Meanwhile, persistent insulin blocks fat burning. Insulin is your body’s “storage hormone”—when elevated, it signals that nutrients (particularly glucose) are available and should be stored, not burned. This promotes fat accumulation in the liver and abdomen, worsening metabolic dysfunction.
Eventually, after years of overwork, exhausted pancreatic cells fail, leading to issues such as Type 2 diabetes. Insulin resistance underlies most chronic diseases—heart disease, stroke, dementia, fatty liver, and cancer. The good news is that very low-carbohydrate diets naturally reduce insulin production, while intermittent fasting activates autophagy—a cellular cleanup process that clears damaged cells, reduces insulin demand, restores insulin sensitivity, and reverses this metabolic cascade when implemented consistently. Combined with proper constitutional nutrition, these approaches can restore metabolic health even in those most vulnerable to insulin resistance.
