type 2 diabetes,  insulin, resistance, American Diabetes Association, strenuous exercise, weight red

Insulin resistance can be tested invasively (with catheters and infusions) or more realistically using fasting glucose and insulin levels.

We must actively treat variables such as dyslipidemia and hypertension in people with IGT.
