HIIT workouts help with insulin resistance. Just finding out, in my mid 30's, had adult acne my entire adult life, and now entering perimenopause. I started a HIIT routine 6 months ago and started eating more protein. Never too late to start.

I figured this out on my own lol. I'm 44. Sugar worsens my arthritis as well.

[Rychrand]

It's important to point out, these studies were done with patients at dermatology clinics, meaning most of them probably had pretty severe acne. I could not find public studies on the acne/IR relationship for general populace. So take this with a grain of salt, and consult your doctor if you think you have IR instead of youtube

[livsstilen]

Right on, I always tell young people to avoid sugar 😊

My doctor called it geriatric acne.. It was insulin resistance.. I had acne till I was in my thirties

[jaeess]

I never had any significant breakouts when I was growing up - or up to now. What I did have was the darkening of my neck and it was significant. No doctor ever told me it was insulin resistance… until I was literally an adult. I’m glad that the diabetes prevention is more widespread now so that doctors are more equipped to recognize the insulin resistance before running tests.

[JUMALATION]

The wording here was sketchy enough for me to doubt that it's 100% true. I want to know the exact hormones, and what exactly "toxic insulin" is, for me to believe a Youtube Short just like that. I'm not a biologist but I have a strong gut feeling that this video was skipping a lot of important info

[sabinesa]

Thank you very much. This was the missing piece of information I needed to understand.

[MartyRaaymakers]

Great info. Needed it years ago though i can help my greatgrands now

[s.family]

Wow. very helpful I needed this info in my 20's when I had acne, a decade before I discovered insulin resistance. Makes sense now. I was always wondering what was going on internally & the endocrinologist at the time sure didn't have much to say. Silver lining I'll use this info for my kids which matters the most to me anyway .

I'm 58 y.o. and only now I understand what happened to my skin when I was in my teens, thank you for this very useful vídeo. My parents never took me to a doctor, they told me to treat agressive acne with toothpaste and alchohol. Only when I began working and was able to Go to a doctor by myself I could treat my skin correctly but never understood what caused that kind of acne.

[zeroth-zmkc]

I am 16 girl doc pls make more videos abt teenage and educate us more in the right time, btw your speaking skills are good 👍

[tugginalong]

I was 18 before I ever had a zit. I’m 63 now and barely have any gray hair and I’ve never dyed my hair.
But I love sugar.

My acne is often caused by stress. I had severe acne when I was a child and I also had sweat that would turn by white shirts yellow under the armpits
My childhood was very stressful and it showed in my body but I was a kid 🤷‍♀️
What did I know

[angelacarroll]

I didn't have any pimples in my teens. Don't know if it was my hormones or Mediterranean diet. Although my first pimple came when I was 21, I didn't have many through the years. My skin is still good, I'm 67 now.😊. Lucky with the skin, but not with fine hair or osteoarthritis( in my knees).

[bucknut]

So one pimple everyone once in awhile is insulin resistance vs some dirt or bacteria

[margaretallen]

Thank you for talking about this subject I found it very interesting ❤

I have sebascious cyst in the middle of my back that keeps coming back after extracting the fat from the cyst, until I learned the dr Berg about bile salts. in 2003 my gull bladder was removed, and I remembered a few years later I remember that cyst grew. So I started taking ox bile salt, and the cyst is minimized to almost none existant.

[rb-uudu]

So it does have something to do with insulin, but i think its more so insulin binding to the same receptors as SHBG which increases free testosterone in the body. More testosterone=more sebum production. It also raises IGF-1 which doubly raises sebum production

[poonampatil]

I had lots of acne in school... but then I took treatment for acne. Nothing related to hormones. Only vit, retinol, anti pimple cream . Nothing related to hormones.
But now I have very clear skin
