Hi Readers Here's Your Hair Loss Newsletter

How Finasteride Treats the Secondary Effects of DHT It is well known that DHT is linked to androgenetic alopecia. It's also quite well known that the drug finasteride can help reduce the rate at which this type of hair loss develops (and may even encourage new hair growth for some people). However, it is not so well known that the purpose of DHT in the body is for hair growth, not hair loss. This steroid hormone is used by the body to promote the growth of bone, muscle and hair. I believe the primary effect of DHT in the hair loss process is that it contributes to skull expansion by stimulating certain skull bones to grow. But DHT also has a secondary effect. This newsletter explains what this secondary effect is, and how finasteride provides some resistance to it. Hair loss develops because skull expansion causes a reduction in the capillary blood supply to the hair follicles. Eventually, this causes follicle miniaturization which chokes hair growth. The body reacts to this by starting "upregulation" (hyperandrogenicity). This means that the body tries to restore normal healthy hair growth again by increasing DHT production* within the follicles that are affected by skull expansion. * Remember, that's what DHT does: it stimulates growth, not loss. Now, higher DHT levels will accelerate mitosis (cell division) and so should help struggling hair to grow. But, when the rate of mitosis is increased, the blood supply becomes insufficient to grow hair that fast (i.e., because skull expansion has reduced the capillary blood supply). As such, the (papillae) cells in the root of the hair fail to meet the growth demand placed upon them by DHT. Instead, the result of all this extra DHT is to make the body rush through the growth phase (anagen) and reach catagen (the shedding phase) and telogen (the resting phase) much sooner than it normally would. This obviously causes the amount of hair loss to increase. It also means that more hair follicles are in the resting phase. And, whilst the hair growth cycle will restart again, strong healthy hair growth is less likely due to the progressive effects of skull expansion and further accumulation of DHT. Also, since hair growth in the outer (dermal) layer of the scalp has been restricted, DHT will instead promote more rapid cell division at a deeper level of the scalp (called the stratum germinatum layer). This interference with normal cell division can result in skin cells rising up towards the surface of the skin faster than normal, causing increased shedding of the skin - dandruff. (This was explained in a previous newsletter). Finasteride treats this secondary effect of DHT by reducing levels of 5 alpha reductase (an enzyme that converts testosterone into DHT). And so, by reducing DHT levels in this way, finasteride extends the shortened anagen phase which, of course, allows more hair to grow. However, finasteride does not reverse the miniaturization of the hair follicles. I believe this is because it does not effectively treat the skull expansion process (i.e., the underlying cause of hair follicle miniaturization). It only addresses the negative effects caused by the body when it increases DHT production (upregulation). Another problem with finasteride is that further upregulation can easily occur. Many people experience this when they start using this drug. Basically, the body can compensate for the reduction in 5 alpha reductase forced upon it by finasteride. Essentially, it tries even harder to increase the quantity of 5 alpha reductase and DHT production in the affected region of the scalp. This explains why there can be an initial increase in hair loss when people start using finasteride and again when they stop using it. Although finasteride and other drugs such as dutasteride and minoxidil are used by some people to treat hair loss, there's a risk of developing side effects. The method I used and recommend is completely drug free.

Five Ways It Improves Your Life Tattoo Removal ? The Proven Dermatological Techniques Keloid Treatment ? What Helps You the Most?     Healthy 365 Newsletter Issue # 8 - July 26, 2011 What's New with Dr. Weaver  Many years ago, I went on a vacation trip to Mexico and I started each day with an omelet. This vacation trip happened to be during the month of June when I would usually schedule my annual physical. So, when I returned to Houston, I had blood work done and went in for the medical exam as usual.  My physician informed me that my cholesterol was 286 which was way too high and I was first introduced to low fat diets.  I followed the plan and 3 weeks later, my cholesterol had dropped to 186.  It has stayed close to that level for over 25 years.  One of the reasons that it has done so is that I usually eat a turkey sandwich for lunch most days in addition to fish and chicken for most meals.  My staff is surprised to hear that I have not bought any food from their favorite fried chicken place in so many years that I don't remember when. No more Haagen Dazs, but no fat frozen yogurt still makes the taste buds happy! So, today I want to provide information on "How to Eat Healthy" as part of your wellness program and maybe it can get to be part of your daily routine.     Dr. Weaver's Health Tip of the Week How to Eat Healthy, But Still Enjoy Your Meals Does learning how to eat healthy mean you have to eat flavourless food? Lowering the saturated fat content from your diet and reducing added salt or refined sugars should be your goal. If you have been in the habit of eating packaged foods, your pallet has been trained to crave the very things you are aiming to cut out of your diet. Unless you find a way to make healthy foods taste great, you may be tempted to stray from your good intentions, but thankfully there are ways to make food delicious without those harmful additives. 5 Tips for Reducing Fat in Your Diet Without Compromising Taste: Use water, wine or low fat, sodium free stock in place of oil or butter when sautéing. You will not miss the flavour since the oil or butter is usually only used to keep whatever you are cooking from sticking to the pan. If the liquid evaporates just keep adding a little more until the food is cooked. Instead of putting butter or margarine on your potatoes, top them with a dollop of fat free sour cream instead. Sprinkle with a little chives or your favourite herbs or spice blend and you will never miss the butter. Skip the butter when making sandwiches and go with fat free condiments like your favourite mustard or fat free mayo instead. Most of the time we reach for the butter by habit rather than necessity and you will never miss it. Replace cream or whole milk with skim milk in all of your favourite recipes. If the recipe calls for butter, substitute it with a healthier alternative such as olive oil. Buy only the leanest cuts of meat and trim away any fat and skin from chicken. Marinade the meat to tenderize it and replace the flavour of the fat. Whenever possible, bake instead of frying and if you do have to pan fry something, use non-stick cooking spray or brush the meat with lightly with olive oil rather than adding oil to the pan. Making sure you pre-heat the pan will keep the food from sticking. 5 Tips for Reducing Sodium in Your Diet Without Losing Flavour: Replace the salt shaker on your table with a sodium free spice blend. Most of the time we reach for the salt shaker out of habit rather than because our food needs it. A spice shaker on the table will satisfy that "shake" habit and add flavour to the food. There are tons of ready-made spice blends available or you can create your own custom blend using your favourites. Trick your pallet. Sour and salt are recognized by the same group of taste buds. Instead of adding salt to your foods while they are cooking, try adding a splash of lemon or lime juice or flavoured vinegars instead. Balsamic vinegar is particularly good to cook with as it adds a ton of flavour. Read the labels. If you must purchase any packaged or canned goods, get in the habit of comparing labels for sodium levels. Chances are pretty good that a different brand may be a healthier alternative to the brand you are used to buying. Add aromatics such as finely diced raw onion, scallions or shallots, roasted or raw garlic, fresh ginger or fresh herbs to foods as a hit of flavour instead of salt. Not only do these add flavour, they also bump up the nutritional value of your foods. Make your own salad dressings. These are super easy to make and they taste much better than store-bought dressings. Balsamic vinegar, olive oil, Italian spices and minced garlic is a sodium free dressing that is packed with flavour. Experiment and find combinations you and your family will love. As you can see there are simple ways for you to learn how to eat healthy without sacrificing the taste of your food. You just need to make a few minor changes in your food preparation habits to make a big impact on your diet. As you can see, we have just focused on fat and sodium, not calories.  We know that too much fat can lead to deposits of plaque in arteries in the heart, carotids that provide blood flow to the brain, as well as the vessels of the legs.  So, by eating less fat your body will thank you. While debatable from some medical perspectives, sodium is still thought to play a key role in the development, progression, and worsening of high blood pressure.  So, keeping your blood pressure in check will cause your body to thank you as well. So, take the information above and prepare a healthy low fat and low sodium meal and see if you can adjust to it so that it becomes your regular routine.

Hi Readers Here's Your Hair Loss Newsletter

Other Causes Of Dandruff And How To Treat It In the last newsletter, I explained seborrhoeic dermatitis - a skin disorder that can cause severe dandruff. But there are other types of dandruff too. So in this issue I'll explain what causes them and how to treat them. Dandruff can be caused by both internal and external factors. Internal factors include: Hormone imbalance Poor health and diet Allergies Stress Genetic predisposition External factors include: Poor hygiene (e.g., infrequent hair washing and poor rinsing of the scalp). Excessive use of hair sprays, gels, and products containing alcohol (which over dry the scalp). Excessive use of hair-coloring products. Overuse of hair curlers. Hair dryers can also over dry the scalp. Cold weather, indoor heating causing excessive dry scalp. Treatment for dandruff First of all, there's no cure for dandruff. But there are plenty of things you can do to control it. These are the top tips for eliminating and preventing dandruff: 1. Choose a mild dandruff shampoo - strong, detergent-based shampoos clean the scalp, but often cause excessive drying. So, if you shampoo every day, use organic (or baby) shampoo. 2. Brush your scalp before you wash your hair - this will loosen flakes of skin. 3. Use a shampoo with a low pH - as stated with seborrhoeic dermatitis, most anti-dandruff shampoos will normalize the pH of the scalp - i.e., to give a slightly lower (acidic) pH. So, how do you find the pH of shampoo? Good question. Some shampoos may state the pH on the packaging, or you could buy pH test strips or just email or Google the company before you buy. Shampoos have many ingredients - ideally you would use a shampoo which contains only organic ingredients. 4. Nutrition can also help control dandruff. If you eat lots of sugar and saturated fats, you will encourage DHT and sebum production. So, eating healthy and getting plenty of B vitamins is recommended. Garlic, onion and oil of oregano are also said to help.

Why Diet Resistant Fat Develops and What to Do About It!     Healthy 365 Newsletter Issue # 7 - July 19, 2011 What's New with Dr. Weaver  One of the truths about life is that no matter who we are, or what we know, we can always use a little outside assistance with trying to figure out one matter or the other in life. One of the things I realized early on in medical school was that it is impossible to know everything! So, part of pursuing a profession in medicine meant that I would never know everything, and there would always be lifelong learning to fill in knowledge gaps, but what was I going to do?  Eventually, I came to another realization that it is good to use other people and their strengths to help out in areas in which they were better than me. This led me to participate in study groups and each individual helped the other members better understand the course material for specific classes. One of my classmates in the study group agreed to take notes during lectures, transcribe them and give a copy to each member of the study group. Even though we sat next to each other in class, on many occasions when I would read her notes and compare them to what I heard or had written down, it seemed like we were in totally different lectures. She had written down details that I did not even remember hearing let alone write them down because of my slow handwriting and inability to keep up with the speed of the lecturer.  I called her "the human tape recorder", and she was a great resource to help me with having accurate lecture notes. On other occasions, each member of the group contributed their special talent to help the others and the outcome was that we all did well academically because we all helped each other. So, as part of being your advocate for health, wellness, and dermatology related matters, I will recruit additional experts to provide their input to helping you have the healthiest life possible.   So, from time to time I will have guest authors make contributions so that you get the best of all worlds to support your health and wellness. By the way, "the human tape recorder" went on to become an excellent pediatrician and now practices in Louisiana.   Dr. Weaver's Health Tip of the Week   Healthy Aging- How to Stay Well and Enjoy Every Age Answers to questions on healthy aging and longevity are something that many people are searching for these days as baby boomers reach their senior years. The fact is that healthy aging begins in your early years. How you have treated your body throughout your lifetime will determine how healthy you will be later in life. However, this does not mean that you cannot start today to lead a healthier lifestyle to help reverse your not-so-healthy choices in previous years. Here are 5 Ways to Make Changes for Healthy Aging: Stop smoking. I know that is easier said than done, but smoking will shorten your life and decrease your quality of life, especially as you age. Lung cancer, COPD and other lung diseases, heart disease and cardio-vascular disease are all major causes of death. Did you know that after 48 hours of non-smoking many symptoms disappear and your body begins to heal the damage done? If you have been a smoker for most of your life you will have increased risks but you can drastically decrease your chances of morbidity by just quitting today. Get plenty of sleep. Much of our body's restorative and regeneration processes occur during sleep. By getting at 7-9 hours of sleep every night your body has a chance to recover from any stressors it is subjected to and realign its natural balance. The older we get, the slower our body is in recovering from the things that we took in stride in our younger years. So go to bed one hour earlier, your body will thank you for it. Eat a balanced diet and take supplements. Nutrition plays a key role in healthy aging and longevity. Making sure you get enough proteins, minerals and vitamins while at the same time decreasing the amount of animal fats you eat will help your body stay fit. In North America, the average person consumes far more animal fat, sodium and sugar than is healthy. It is the reason obesity is a major health problem in our culture. If you are overweight, aging is less kind as the additional weight puts strain on your joints, your endocrine system and your heart. To live a long and healthy life you need to get your weight back to the normal range and ensure you are getting the proper nutrition. Daily exercise. As you age, your bones begin losing density and you lose muscle mass. One way to combat this process is to stay active. Weight baring exercise such as walking has been proven to help reduce bone and muscle loss so you should enjoy a daily stroll to stay healthy. Not only does this help your bones, it also helps your cardio-vascular system. As you become more fit, increase the intensity of your exercise. Perhaps hiking is a good choice. Cycling and swimming are also excellent forms of cardio-vascular exercise that are easier on your joints than jogging. No matter what you choose to do, the important thing is just get up and get moving if you want to enjoy your current and/or senior years. Keep your brain fit. No matter how healthy your body is, if you have not kept your mind active you will not enjoy your later years. One of the biggest mistakes people make upon retiring is failing to do tasks that require problem solving and memory. Do the daily crossword puzzle in your local newspaper, jigsaw puzzles or other strategy games. Take up a hobby that requires you to use your brain. Woodworking is a hobby that not only is relaxing to some, it also requires you to plan and assemble items. Sewing and crafts also offer the same benefits. Take supplements that are designed to maintain brain health. Gingko, flax, linseed and a wide variety of other natural ingredients are known to support brain health.   No matter what your current state of health is, it is possible to become healthier and fit. Make one change per day towards your goal of health and longevity and you will find that within a few short weeks you are feeling younger every day. Here is a Healthy Aging Profile survey that I would like for you to complete so that you can see where you stand.  (Rank yourself on a scale of 1 to 5) 1=Never   2=Rarely   3=Sometimes   4=Often    5=Always I have an exercise plan or physical activity program that I follow to keep physically fit I eat healthy and have a positive attitude and expectations about life I get 7 to 9 hours of sleep nightly on a regular basis and fall asleep easily I take supplements and vitamins daily for a healthier heart, brain, and body I avoid smoking cigarettes or second hand smoke I get a regular physical examination and blood tests as part of my personal health plan I maintain my weight in a healthy range with a BMI of 25 or less (see BMI calculator) I relax regularly and deflect stress to avoid internalizing negative emotions I follow specific medical advice for any illnesses or diseases that I have and focus more on the bright side rather than negative complications I have a network of friends and/or relatives for emotional support, fun, and camaraderie Well, how did you do?  What is your total score? People with the best Healthy Aging Profile will tend to rank as a 5 for each of these questions.  Don't worry if you don't have all 5's, you can improve your scores and your Healthy Aging Profile in each of these areas. What I want you to do now is to pick 1 area that you don't have a 5 and commit to working on that 1 item for the next 30 days.  Then I would like for you to report back on what you have noticed take place within your life.  We could also call this your Healthy Living Profile if you don't want to focus on the concept of aging! I look forward to hearing about your success.  Remember, Readers, pick 1 area and START TODAY!

It causes me to think back on the time I graduated from high school and because of an interest in math, science, and engineering, I was offered the opportunity to have a summer internship at NASA.    The internship consisted of assisting one of the engineers who worked there on a variety of projects which included the Skylab and these funny looking drawings that eventually became the model for the space shuttle.   There were various teams working on different aspects of the project and the engineer took trips to Huntsville, Alabama to meet with other engineers at another NASA facility to go over the drawings and figure out how these things were going to work.  I think the engineer even asked me to try to figure out some of the physics of the craft for the solar panels that were being used as an energy source, but I think he forgot I was a high school intern and not the college intern from Georgia Tech; the calculations were somewhat challenging to say the least.    I remember taking home some of the drawings and doing something with the materials, but my actual duties during the internship are a distant memory, but I do remember being a little bit skeptical that these drawings were really going to turn into anything.   Amazingly, three years after my internship the Skylab space station was put into orbit and soon there after the space shuttle had gone from funny drawings to a real flight vehicle that transported astronauts into space.   So, what's my point?  Everything that happened at NASA started as an idea in someone's mind.  The ideas came first and next through trial, error, and experimentation successful reality emerged.   The same can be said for advances that are being made in the field of anti-aging medicine and longevity.  With a focus on the idea of protecting health and improving the quality of ongoing life, some of what we think is impossible will become possible.  Ideas come first and reality comes second.   What ideas do you have that need to be planted, cultivated, and harvested?  Write them out on paper and get started today.  Then reality can follow!     Dr. Weaver's Health Tip of the Week Why Diet Resistant Fat Develops and What to Do About It! Have you tried every diet known to man and still have stubborn love handles that just will not go away? Do you exercise daily yet still have abdominal or body fat that just won't go away? If so, you need to know that some fatty deposits are resistant to being removed through diet and exercise alone. It has nothing to do with being fat but it is because of your genes and hormonal factors. To understand why some fat cells are resistant to dieting you must first understand how and when fat cells develop in our bodies. When we are babies and when we are pre-pubescent are the only two times when the actual numbers of fat cells in our bodies increase. This is why babies have "baby fat" and why we often get a bit chubby just before reaching puberty. The distribution of those fat cells is mainly genetic and cannot be changed. At no other time in our lives will we ever "grow" more fat cells, unless we go on massive high calorie binges. Fat cells have two types of receptors that control their presence:  Alpha receptors which cause fat cells to stay present and Beta receptors that signal fat cells to break down and provide fuel for energy.  Hormonal input from the body can cause an increase or decrease in fat metabolism and it is primarily the cells with Beta receptors that increase or decrease in size with weight gain or loss and exercise.    Fat cells with more Alpha than Beta receptors tend to be more resistant to diet and physical activity so they tend to hang around no matter what.  In ladies, fat cells in the middle portions of the body also contain estrogen receptors which help balance fat distribution during pregnancy to give the body more support, but can also contribute to diet resistant fat deposits in the same areas that will persist unrelated to pregnancy. When we become overweight, it is because we are increasing the size of our existing fat cells, not because we are increasing their numbers. When we take in more calories than we can burn, the excess is stored in our fat cells making them grow larger and larger and making us obese. When we go on a diet to lose weight, we are not shedding fat cells; we are simply shrinking them back down to normal size.  The fat cells with Beta Receptors get smaller and the ones with Alpha receptors lag behind. For some people who are genetically predisposed to having a large number of fat cells or to having a large number of fat cells concentrated in specific areas such as the abdomen, thighs or chin, it is not possible to get the slim look they desire because of this genetic distribution of the fat cells plus an increase in Alpha or Estrogen receptors. In these instances, no amount of dieting or exercise will ever get rid of that paunch or bulge of fat. Does this mean you have to settle for having a bulging tummy, double chin or large thighs for the rest of your life? Not necessarily. The only way to get rid of it is to actually decrease the number of fat cells that are stored in the subcutaneous layer which can be accomplished with a variety of body shaping procedures. One of the most effective procedures is tumescent liposuction, which is a procedure that can be done by a qualified dermatologist. During the liposuction procedure, after local anesthesia is infiltrated into the area, your doctor will insert a small tube, known as a cannula, into the fatty deposit in the subcutaneous layer of your skin and remove the excess fat cells in these specific areas. So, those stubborn fat cells with Beta and Estrogen receptors can finally be removed and this will help you achieve the slim and trim appearance you desire that you will never been able to achieve through normal diet and exercise. Modern technology has advanced the liposuction procedure to the point where it can be performed in the dermatologist's office under local anesthetic. Risks are minimal for healthy individuals and recovery time has been reduced. If you are someone who is genetically predisposed to being overweight, and you want to learn more about this procedure, you can get instant access to Dr. Weaver's free report, "Consumer's Guide to Liposuction and Body Shaping-Get The Body You Want", by going to http://LiposuctionHoustonTx.com.

Hi Readers Here's Your Hair Loss Newsletter

Seborrhoeic Dermatitis In the last newsletter, I explained how dandruff can sometimes be linked to hair loss. I also mentioned that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) will increase sebum production which might then lead on to seborrhoeic dermatitis - a skin disorder which can cause even more dandruff! So, in this newsletter I'll explain more about seborrhoeic dermatitis, as well as other causes of dandruff, and how to treat it. Seborrhoeic dermatitis is a skin disorder that can affect the scalp, face and trunk. Symptoms include scaly, flaky, itchy, red or inflamed skin as you can see from the picture below. When it affects the scalp it can also cause severe dandruff (usually forming larger, greasier flakes than other types of dandruff). Whilst its cause remains unknown, there are several possible factors that may be involved: genetic, environmental, hormonal and the immune system. However, perhaps the most likely cause is the yeast (or fungus) called malassezia furfur* (which was formerly known as pityrosporum ovale). It's possible that an inflammatory response to this yeast might occur. Research also suggests that, since seborrhoeic dermatitis mostly affects areas where sebaceous glands are abundant (i.e., the scalp), this yeast feeds upon the sebum these glands produce, allowing it to proliferate. This theory is also supported by the fact that anti-fungal agents have proven effective against this condition. This yeast usually exists on your body and scalp all the time without causing any problems. So it may well be that a combination of high sebum levels and inadequate washing is what triggers this condition. Malassezia cannot live in acidic (low pH) conditions. Skin has a slightly acidic pH of 5. But, oils (including sebum) do not have a pH value. So, if your scalp is constantly saturated in sebum, your scalp may be open to the spread of seborrhoeic dermatitis. Shampoos can vary in pH between 4 and 8.5 but anti-dandruff shampoos should be low in pH. * Note that other strains of malassezia (globosa and restricta) have also been linked to seborrhoeic dermatitis. Anti-fungal shampoos The anti-fungal agents these shampoos contain include: Ketoconazole Zinc pyrithione Selenium sulphide Coal tar Salicylic acid Tea-tree oil Salicylic acid will remove dead skin cells and decrease the rate at which they form. Zinc pyrithione kills malassezia furfur. Selenium sulfide and Ketoconazole will each accomplish what salicylic acid and zinc pyrithione achieve combined. Research suggests that Nizoral shampoo (which contains Ketoconazole) Is the most effective anti-fungal shampoo.

About 15 years ago, I attended the 25th anniversary meeting of the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery.  I can truly say that attending that meeting was a major turning point in my dermatology career.  First, the scientific presentations at the meeting reviewed the advances in dermatology over the preceding 25 years including laser surgery, liposuction and body shaping surgery, cosmetic procedures, surgical dermatology, varicose vein procedures and others.  It was amazing to see how the ways of helping patients with a wide variety of conditions had evolved over the years.  Furthermore, many of the procedures discussed did not even exist when I had finished my dermatology training program.  So, while the technological advances were dramatic, I did not really see myself doing them.  But something happened.  Sitting next to me at the meeting was Dr. Arthur Sumrall, a dermatologist from Indianapolis who I had known since my time as a dermatology resident in training.  At the end of one of the presentations, he turned to me and said "Weaver, you can do this".  I can still remember those words today.  Just because of his encouragement and belief in me, I attended more courses and workshops in the next year than I had attended in the previous ten years.  At the end of that year, I was able to provide many of the services to my patients that I would have thought impossible just a year earlier.  On the other hand, I could have ignored what he said and never done anything different.  However, I know that I am a much better dermatologist because I did. There are many health aids, guides, treatments and programs to help you live a healthier and happier life.  Many of these will be shared with you through the Healthy 365 Newsletter.  If you use them, your life should be better. So, I would like to say to you today.  Readers, You Can Do This!  Just believe it and do what it takes.   Dr. Weaver's Health Tip of the Week What Is Insulin Resistance and How The Answer Impacts Your Life?   Insulin Resistance Syndrome, or Metabolic Syndrome, affects over 70 million Americans So, What is Insulin Resistance? First, Insulin is a hormone produced by our pancreas. This hormone's purpose is to control our metabolism keeping our blood sugar levels in check and supplying the cells in our muscles with energy. When we eat or drink, the carbohydrates, fats and proteins are converted into sugars that enter the blood stream. When the blood sugar level reaches a certain point, a signal causes the pancreas to begin producing insulin. The insulin is like a dinner bell for the cells primarily fat and muscle cells that absorb and use sugar the most. It signals them that it is time to open up and feed or allow the sugar to get into the cells. This removes the sugars from the blood and as the blood sugar level drops, insulin production is turned off. This is the normal process of our metabolism and it happens every time we take in food. When a person has developed insulin resistance, various cells throughout the body don't respond to the wake-up call that the insulin sends out, so it responds by releasing larger and larger amounts of insulin before the cells wake up and begin absorbing the blood sugars. Eventually a point is reached where the insulin signal no longer works and the sugar absorbed from the meals has no where to go, so the blood sugar levels get higher and higher and the insulin levels get higher and higher. During this phase the afflicted person may not even realize what is going on within their bodies. Eventually a point is reached where the blood sugar levels remain elevated while fasting and not just after a meal; at that time, Type 2 diabetes is diagnosed. What are the causes of Insulin Resistance?  Insulin resistance generally occurs after the age of 40, although with the lifestyles of our children today, it is being noted earlier and earlier. As with Type 2 diabetes, the main culprit is an unhealthy lifestyle. Being obese, poor diet, aging and a sedentary life appear to be the main reason people develop insulin resistance or the metabolic syndrome. Genetics oftentimes plays a role as well. If you have a history of Type 2 diabetes in your family, you are much more likely to develop insulin resistance. Other variables such as steroid use and serious infections or illnesses may also trigger this disease. What are the Symptoms of Insulin Resistance? If you have any of the following symptoms you should speak to your doctor about being tested for insulin resistance. The most prevalent symptoms are: *    Obesity with a high concentration of the fat in the abdominal region *    High cholesterol and or triglyceride levels *    High blood pressure (hypertension) *    Family history of Type 2 diabetes Other symptoms may include: *    Fatigue that increase after eating *    Decreased memory or feeling a bit foggy at times *    Depression *    Darkened patches in the folds of your skin *    Increased incidences of skin tags *    Ovarian cysts and menstrual irregularities How to Help Insulin Resistance? First, in most cases a change in lifestyle is all that is needed to decrease your chances of developing insulin resistance or to prevent it from further developing into Type 2 diabetes and all of the other life-threatening diseases associated with it. Bringing your weight back to normal through diet and exercise and removing the high concentration of abdominal fat will help your cells to better hear the wake-up call of the insulin hormone and will decrease the amount of insulin your pancreas needs to produce to manage your metabolism. Current nutritional research shows promising results with dietary supplements such as alpha-lipoic acid and grape seed extract.  Both of these ingredients are being tested in human clinical trials and have provided positive benefit to decreasing insulin resistance and helping the body to process sugar better and lowering the risk for Type 2 diabetes.  More information about these type of nutritional supplements will be provided soon. In many cases, the person has no idea it is occurring in their bodies until it progresses to Type 2 diabetes and they begin feeling unwell. The signs of insulin resistance are not glaringly apparent to the individual and therefore tend to get ignored until it is too late and serious damage has been done. Left untreated, insulin resistance will decrease your quality of life and almost certainly shorten your lifespan. Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, stroke and loss of vision have all been linked to this disease. If you want to avoid these types of complications, take action now.
