Progressive Weight Loss-Induced Remission of Insulin Resistance/Hyperinsulinemia and Improvements in Cardiovascular Risk Factors by Leng M, Guo X, Wei C, Zhang Y, Li Z, Gao X, Hou D, Li C

“…The greater the percentage of weight loss, the greater the remission rate of insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia (P for trend< 0.001), which reaches 100% when weight loss exceeds 30%. After adjusting for factors such as age, gender, and medication usage, remission of HI was still associated with progressive weight loss.Conclusion: With progressive weight loss, people with overweight or obesity experienced further improvements in glycemic outcomes, body compositions, HI and insulin resistance.Keywords: hyperinsulinemia, obesity, Insulin resistance, weight loss, body composition…”
