@vivaria_medspa: insulin resistance means your body is not using insulin properly. Insulin is the hormone that helps move sugar from your blood into your cells for energy. When your body becomes resistant to insulin, it's like your cells stop "listening" to it. As a result, your body has to make more and more insulin to keep blood sugar under control. Common signs can include: • Difficulty losing weight • Cravings for sugary foods • Feeling tired after eating • Belly fat that is hard to lose • Dark skin around the neck or underarms • PCOS in some women
