The conventional story of type 2 diabetes—lifelong, progressive, and medication-dependent—misses the deeper biology driving the disease. In this episode of The Health Pulse, we unpack selective insulin resistance across the liver, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle, and explain how restoring insulin sensitivity systemwide can lead to true remission, not just better numbers. We explore the liver’s paradoxical behavior—continuing to produce glucose while aggressively storing fat—and how fatty ...

We break down the key metabolic regulators: insulin (the fat-storage switch), leptin (the satiety hormone), ghrelin (the hunger trigger), cortisol (the stress-driven craving hormone), and thyroid hormone...
