Is improving insulin resistance to treat diabetes consistently effective?

  The most common concerns about the treatment of the disease are the effectiveness of the treatment and the recurrence of the disease. Diabetes is still recognized as a chronic disease that cannot be cured, and the relevant treatment is not only internal medicine to control the disease but also surgical procedures to reverse the disease. Given the choice between the two, I believe that many people will choose reversal because it avoids the need for lifelong medication and keeps their blood sugar in the normal range over time.  The reason why the treatment effect of diabetes surgery is only for obese patients with type 2 diabetes is because the accumulation of abdominal fat can make the body insulin resistance to directly affect the body’s glucose metabolism function. Therefore, the relevant treatment mechanism is mainly to improve this insulin resistance condition through weight loss.  This method of treating diabetes is quite stable and can lead to a relapse of the condition mainly due to obesity again. However, it is important to know that weight loss surgery is achieved by reducing the volume of the stomach or by creating a gastric bursa and reconstructing the digestive tract, so the weight loss effect of the surgery is relatively good and the chance of weight regain after the surgery is quite low.  In fact, many people are only concerned about how difficult it is to lose weight, but in fact, normal simple obesity is not short-term can be achieved, whether obesity or weight loss need a long-term accumulation process, only the life that leads to obesity is more easily accepted to make people feel obese easy.  Generally after weight loss surgery can allow a person to maintain a healthy weight range for a long time, and during this period, the body’s glucose metabolism function can return to a normal state because insulin resistance is reversed with a good improvement. So surgery for diabetes is still a relatively stable form of treatment.
