Diabetics and insulin-resistant individuals have impaired immunity and wound healing.

“And perhaps most importantly, hyperinsulinemia leads to disordered wound healing. We know very clearly that in diabetic individuals, there is immune compromise and delayed wound healing.”

“Basically, being diabetic or prediabetic, having insulin resistance, wreaks havoc on your immune system, and you know that your immune system is critical for the repair of parts of your body. You must repair your skin, your arteries, whatever, with your immune system. That is how your immune system works to repair tissues.”

“insulin resistance, essentially prediabetes leading to diabetes, it's all on a continuum. This this really results in immune compromise and impaired wound repair.”
