isn't a good thing to be insulin resistant ? After all the one thing everyone cherishes (GH) causes this exact thing
In layman terms, when you eat a carbohydrate or sugar its dumped into the blood stream as blood glucose. When your insulin sensitive (IS), your liver dumps just enough insulin to drive the glucose out of your blood stream into your muscle and liver tissues. With Insulin resistance (IR), your muscles and liver receptors are no longer responsive or resistant to your own insulin. When you eat a carbohydrate or sugar the liver dumps insulin just like it does with IS, but this time nothing happens, the blood sugar remains elevated and muscles and liver are starved of glucose. Your liver tries to compensate by dumping even more insulin to clear your blood stream of blood sugar. Over time if not treated you will be almost completely be resistant to your own insulin and need exogenous insulin. You can google it for a more formal explanation.
As far as regular GH users, they either use exogenous insulin with gh or come off gh and use metformin to regain sensitivity.
