Obesity and Diabetes

Obesity and diabetes are linked in a complex way. obesity contributes to the development of type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas to aid in the regulation and reduction of blood sugar levels. In obese adults with type 2 diabetes, the amount of insulin produced in the body may be normal, but it may not be enough to meet the body's needs. As a result, the blood sugar level is maintained at a high level. Insulin resistance is the term used to describe this condition. Insulin resistance is a typical sign of obesity-related type 2 diabetes.
