When you minimize your intake of sugars and carbohydrates, you shift your metabolism into a healthier alternative that decreases your risk factors of developing diabetes.
To begin with, having a reduced intake of carbohydrates and sugar means you decrease the body’s need to release insulin in large quantities. This has a twofold benefit as it protects your pancreatic cells from exhaustion as they no longer need to secrete insulin in crazy amounts to restore your rising blood glucose levels. Moreover, it prevents insulin insensitivity from occurring as your cells are not exposed to large amounts of insulin frequently.
Other benefits of reducing your carb intake is that you are going to lose weight. Being overweight is a risk factor for developing diabetes. An additional fact is that too much insulin relates to weight gain.
Insulin in nature is an anabolic hormone. That means it causes the macromolecules to be built. Macromolecules are molecules such as fats and carbohydrates. So, in other words, insulin causes fats to be built rather than broken down, and this is the opposite of losing weight. This is in fact how you gain weight.
