Summary/Abstract: Insulin sensitivity is a term that determines how sensitive insulin cells that regulate glucose metabolism and is indicative of diseases such as various metabolic diseases and cancer. Insulin sensitivity is very important for healthy living and healthy aging. Insulin is essential for normal growth and development; and for normal homeostasis of glucose, fat and protein metabolism. When any food is consumed except fat, the blood sugar rises and the beta cells in the pancreas release insulin. These created insulin acts as a key for glucose to enter the cell. In this study, the working method of this system and its importance on human health are explained.
