Diabetes and Obesity

Being overweight or obese will increase the possibilities of developing the common type of diabetes, type 2 diabetes. In this disease, the body makes enough hypoglycemic agent however the cells within the body became immune to the good action of hypoglycemic agent. Science proposes that being overweight stresses the insides of individual cells. Specifically, overeating stresses the membranous network inside of cells called endoplasmic reticulum (ER). When the ER has a lot of nutrients to process than it will handle, it sends out an alarm signal telling the cell to dampen down the hypoglycemic agent receptors on the cell surface. This translates to insulin resistance and to persistently high concentrations of the sugar glucose in the blood -- one of the sure signs of diabetes.
