A study published in Diabetes (1993;42:1324-32) supports the suggestion that insulin resistance precedes type 2 DM and that there is great variability in insulin-stimulated glucose disposal (insulin action) measured by SSPG (Steady State Plasma Glucose) in healthy, nonobese persons with normal OGTT. They found that ~ 25% of individuals with normal glucose tolerance were about as insulin resistant as T2DM patients. In these persons, normal OGTT can be maintained by compensatory hyperinsulinemia until the pancreatic beta-cells burn out. This compensatory hyperinsulinemia is by no means a benign state: it is associated with high TG, low HDL & high BP. Hyperinsulinemia, per se, has been identified as an independent risk factor for CHD.

Eat animal fats
Don't fear fat. Eating saturated fat will not make you fat. Eating refined carbs will.
