You want to have minimal insulin resistance. Since insulin signals your body to store fat, you want your body to function with the least amount of insulin required.

This will help you stay thinner. It is many times more effective than exercising.

Here are ways to reduce insulin resistance in your body.
  1. Don’t eat constantly : Whenever you eat you produce glucose which means you need inulin. Constant exposure to insulin will cause insulin resistance.
  2. Eat only 4 times, or 3 times or twice a day : This way your body only produces insulin on a few occasions
  3. Try Fasting or Increasing the time gap between meals : The longer the gap between meals, the longer your body goes without insulin. This will lower the insulin resistance of your cells.
    1. TRICK : We often have a tea or coffee in the afternoon. If you choose green tea, darjeeling tea (without milk) or black coffee, and have it without sugar/sweetener you will not create glucose in the body and therefore no insulin.
  4. Avoid simple or highly processed carbohydrates : Simple carbohydrates break down into glucose the fastest. This means your body needs a higher dose of insulin. This creates insulin resistance. And the more processed the food, the faster it will convert to glucose.
  5. Eating sequence of Fruits and desserts : If you eat them after having your meal then when they go through the intestinal tract their sugar absorption is slowed down with all the other food in the system. As we see in our client's sugar graphs, when they eat a fruit on an empty stomach their glucose leveels really shoot up. The same fruit, eaten after some oats (not instant oats, we only use steel cut oats) will hardly raise the sugar level compared to before.
  6. Eat Whole grains : Like point #5, eating more whole grains will slow down the glucose spike, slow down the digestive process. It will likely keep you full for longer too, meaning you will eat less frequently.
  7. Reduce Carbohydrates : One reason Indians get so much diabetes is because we eat too much carbohydrates. Dal, Roti are both carbohydrates. If you have aloo ki subji (potatoes) along with that your meal was 100% carbohydrates. Instead replace the potatoes with a starch-free green vegetable (starch is a carbohydrate) and try to have a salad before-hand. You will cut your carbohydrates as much as 40% like this. (and subscribe to our blog to learn other tricks to cut out even more carbs while eating home-style food ;) )
  8. Reduce Saturated Fats : Saturated Fats gum up your cells. Reducing saturated fats will very quickly lower insulin resistance in your body. It is our elimination of saturated fats in the Cure My Diabetes program that people start needing 50% less insulin doses (for those on insulin), within 5 days.
  9. Exercise : Yes I do put this on the bottom of the list. It is important, but not more important than any of the above steps. Food is more important than exercise ! Exercise also helps reduce insulin resistance of your cells. Specially when you do core exercises and some leg exercises you are exercising lots muscles in your body and this will greatly reduce the insulin resistance in a large percentage of your body.


All of these steps have an amazing effect. We see this all the time through our advanced glucose monitoring chips. As people change their diet their glucose levels come down, within hours, and therefore their body needs less insulin. Less insulin means less insulin resistance.
