When there’s too much glucose in your bloodstream, insulin tells your body to store the leftover glucose in your liver. The stored glucose isn’t released until your blood glucose levels decrease.

Insulin resistance is a condition where the body's cells in muscles, fat, and liver do not respond well to insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas that helps manage blood sugar levels.

Instead, systemic insulin resistance is triggered, exacerbating gluconeogenesis (glucose production by the liver) that leads to metabolic imbalance. In skeletal muscles, mitochondrial dysfunction ...
