There is no doubt that there is a strong relationship between obesity and diabetes (not dependent on insulin), but we must not forget that there are other reasons such as genetics, sex, geographical places, etc., but what is the relationship between obesity and diabetes?
Each cell contains substances that receive insulin, which burns the glycos to produce energy. These substances called insulin receptors. If there are no or fewer receptors, the insulin will not work on this cell and therefore will not benefit from glycos and increase in blood. These receptors have a fixed percentage on the normal fat cell. If the cell size increases as in the obese, the number of receptors is few
For large cell space. Our advice to every obese is to reduce weight as it is the ideal treatment for diabetics as weight loss improves insulin secretion and receptivity in these patients.
