Narrowing Down the Main Cause Behind Insulin Resistance

DEAR DR. ROACH: What is the main cause for insulin resistance? I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes about five years ago. I’ve maintained a consistent weight under 200 pounds, and I’m only 5 feet, 9 inches tall. I was able to get my A1C level down to 7.2% last summer, but in late fall, my numbers started spiking, even with insulin. I now find myself injecting crazy amounts of insulin just to maintain normal glucose levels.

I’m on a diet of 40 grams of carbohydrates a day. I walk close to 20,000 steps a day. But on a regular day, I inject 30-40 units of mealtime insulin before eating a low-carb, high-protein meal. Still, my level spikes above 250 mg/dL, and it stays there for a few hours.

ANSWER: Insulin is a signal that there is plenty of sugar in the body, and the body uses insulin to take sugar out of the blood into cells. Normally, just a little insulin will make blood sugar levels go down a lot. When it takes a lot of insulin to lower blood sugar levels, we say that there is insulin resistance. A great deal of work has been done in trying to elicit why people develop resistance to insulin. There are some rare congenital cases involving mutations of the insulin receptor. There are rarely acquired immune-mediated causes that have antibodies to insulin or the insulin receptor. These antibodies have an extremely high resistance to insulin. However, most cases of insulin resistance are associated with obesity. Your BMI is 29.5, suggesting that you’re overweight but not obese. In this case, abdominal fat is more metabolically important, since it can lead to free fatty acids and compounds called adipocytokines, which may contribute to insulin resistance. People with abdominal obesity and insulin resistance often have abnormal cholesterol levels and high blood pressures, a combination called “metabolic syndrome.” Blood pressure and cholesterol must often be treated separately. Insulin works to lower blood sugar, but there are four main hormones that oppose insulin and raise blood sugar: cortisol, catecholamines, glucagon and growth hormone. Elevated levels of any of these hormones will cause insulin resistance. I know this isn’t your case, but the pregnancy hormone human placental lactogen causes insulin resistance and is the proximate cause for gestational diabetes.

Some medicines (steroids, birth control pills, and HIV medicines) can cause insulin resistance. Critically, glucose itself can cause insulin resistance! High blood sugar levels prevent insulin release as well. This is why getting and keeping a normal blood sugar level is so critically important, especially when a person is first diagnosed. Management of a person with high amounts of insulin resistance can be challenging. You are already doing amazingly well with exercise, and it sounds as though your diet is of the type that is commonly recommended. Medications that reduce insulin levels -- such as metformin, GLP-1 agonists and thiazolidinediones -- are often recommended to reduce the amount of insulin used. Your situation is not common, and you should absolutely be in the hands of an endocrinologist who specializes in diabetes.

My maple tree (approx. 50 ft. high, 2 ft. around) has roots coming out of the ground (approx. 50 ft. from the house). What can I do? I want to keep it.

Maple trees can sometimes have shallow root systems that are prone to being at or just above the surface. This can be influenced by various factors, including soil conditions and the tree’s environment. In cases where the tree is healthy and the

exposed roots are not causing any immediate issues, it may be sufficient to avoid damaging those roots and be mindful of activities around the tree that couldharmthem.

One approach to protect the exposed roots is to use a stone mulch. Stone mulch can create a barrier that helps retain moisture and shields the roots from physical damage. It allows

for proper airflow and water exchange, ensuring the tree’s health. When using stone mulch, it is important to choose the appropriate size and type of stones to avoid impeding water penetrationorlimitingairflow.

However, it is always recommended to consult with a professionalarboristtoassessthe tree’s health and determine the best course of action. They can

provide specific advice tailored to your situation and ensure the long-term well-being of your maple tree. By taking these precautions and seeking expert guidance, you can maintain a healthy and thriving maple tree withshallowroots.

Here’s A Tip

* “Use a bandanna to strain coffee if you’ve accidentally had a filter bust. It works. I first used this tip when camping, but I have used it at home, too. e coffee goes through it faster than a paper filter, which is fine when it’s already brewed, since you lose less heat.” -- T.R. in Arkansas

* Recycling notes: Cardboard that’s greasy or food-caked is just not recyclable. It’s trash. On the plus side, your glass jars don’t have to be perfectly clean, nor your cans crushed, in order to take them to the recycling center or drop curbside if your community has a plan in place.

WHAT CONSUMERS CAN DO TO SUPPORT LOCAL FARMERS

Buy fresh foods at your local farmers market. Farmers markets are many foodies’ favorite places, but they aren’t exclusive to individuals with a passion for food. Everyone needs to eat, so why not eat foods grown locally, which are generally more fresh and appetizing than imported fruits and vegetables sold at chain grocery stores? Even individuals who don’t typically eat fresh fruit and vegetables can find something delectable at a local farmers market, where anything from homemade tomato sauces to locally raised fresh beef and pork might be on sale.

A place where you can find an abundance of locally grown and produced whole foods.

The Power of a Thoughtful Independent Grassroots Movement

Lawn Mowing Hours

I’m so thankful for the over 900 volunteers who worked tirelessly for months to plan and pull-off the collection of well over 135,000 signatures to secure a place for an Independent presidential candidate on New York State’s 2024 ballot. What a recordbreaking accomplishment! I’m equally grateful for the quiet support that candidate has from tens of thousands of New Yorkers who wish for a better life for ALL Americans. This is happening all over our country. Thank you for all the Love, Light, Peace, Cooperation and Civility so many carry in their hearts and words.

Honor and remembrance ceremony. Huge thank you to the Conlan-Mulvaney American Legion Post for their holding the flag presentation for Ssgt. Stephen J Wilson KIA in Iraq. Thanks Legion commander and members.

Before you see, smell, or taste the arrival of summer—you’ll hear it by the sound of lawn mowers. I’m so over the perpetual, neverending lawn mowing in my area—at all hours day and night and often up to three or four times a week! But it’s not just the frequency that gets to me, even though mowing your lawn that often is truly terrible for the environment. Rather, it’s the time of day people choose to mow their lawns, with no regard for quiet hours in the early morning or late evening. I’ve heard multiple neighbors’ lawn mowers running as early as 7am and as late as 9pm this week. What is up with that? Friends, please be considerate of the noise and choose to mow your lawns during reasonable hours. And maybe think twice about how often you need to mow them—one or twice a week is really quite enough.

Please Be Respectful!

Caledonia Trout Fest Fun

What a wonderful time for all ages at the Caledonia Trout Festival on June 1st! Many, many thanks to all of the members of the Trout Festival Planning Committee and Big Springs Museum for the time and effort it takes to plan a community-wide event that brings together an entire community while opening it up and welcoming visitors from all over. Well done!

To people who walk their dogs in our local cemeteries, please STOP! It is disgusting and disrespectful to allow your dog to urinate and defecate on or near a grave. Our loved ones and all those interred deserve respect and honor. A cemetery is a place where families and friends should be able to reflect on and pay tribute to the lives of those buried there, free from dog excrement. Also, to all those who visit our cemeteries, please do not discard drink containers, cigarette butts and food wrappers on the grounds. Those interred deserve our utmost honor and respect.

SPICY STEAK TAMPICO

Makes 4 servings

4 beef tenderloin medallions (each 6 ounces and 3/4-inch thick)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Seasoned salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 cup roasted green chile peppers (see below)

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

1. Brush steaks thoroughly with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.

2. Place medallions on preheated grill, close lid and grill, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer registers 145 F for medium rare, 5 to 8 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate, tent with foil and let stand for 10 minutes.

3. Preheat broiler with rack 3 to 4 inches away from heat. Place steaks on individual ovenproof plates. Top each steak with equal amounts of chile and cheese. Broil until cheese melts, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately. To roast chiles: Preheat greased outdoor grill to medium or preheat an oven broiler. Place fresh chiles on outdoor grill or gas stovetop over medium heat or arrange on a baking sheet and place 2 to 3 inches away from heat under broiler. Grill or broil, turning often with tongs, until surfaces of skin are lightly charred and blistered. Immediately place peppers in a paper bag or an airtight container and close tightly. Let peppers cool for 12 to 15 minutes. Peel off charred skin and remove stems and seeds. Tear into strips or chop as needed according to the recipe. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling chiles. Refrigerate peppers for up to 3 days or freeze in airtight container for up to 6 months.

GRADUATION ETIQUETTE

Stick to paper invitations. Many schools provide students with invitations, but graduates and their families can choose to buy their own. Paper invitations are more personal than digital alternatives. Paper invitations also give the impression that the ceremony will be formal.

PAW’S CORNER

Quelling a cat’s separation anxiety

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Here’s a weird one. I went away on a business trip for three weeks, leaving my 9-year-old cat “Jenks” with a friend. Since I’ve returned, Jenks will not leave my side. He clambers onto my lap while I have Zoom meetings; he follows me to and fro around the house; and he insists on sleeping on the bed at night. He also meows loudly if he can’t see me. is is a new behavior for him. What’s going on? -- Claudio G. in Brooklyn

DEAR CLAUDIO: Jenks may have separation anxiety. Even though he never exhibited these behaviors before while you were away, it’s possible for a cat to develop this issue with no clear triggers.

Monitor his behavior patterns closely for a few days. In addition to meowing loudly when you’re out of sight, is he grooming his coat more than usual? Is he doing anything destructive like clawing up a new piece of furniture? Have his eating habits changed -- eating too little or gulping his food? ese can also be signs of anxiety.

Try the following and note if his behaviors lessen or normalize:

-- Don’t make a big production out of leaving the house or coming home. Extra affection may make him more anxious.

-- Leave the TV, radio or speaker on while you’re away, playing a program or music.

-- Set up a cat perch near the window so he can watch the world.

-- Create a den or nook where he can rest, safe and cozy.

If the behavior doesn’t improve, or it worsens, contact the veterinarian. ey will recommend an exam to rule out any illnesses. ey’ll offer advice on additional ways to help calm Jenks, and if necessary, will prescribe medication to reduce his anxiety.

Send your comments or to scribe medication to reduce his anxiety.

HOBBIES FOR DIFFERENT PERSONALITY TYPES

Athletes can pursue a host of potential hobbies or activities that will foster their love of sports. Men and women who still have a hop in their step can sign up to compete in adult sports leagues. Depending on the sport, leagues might be available to adults of various ages and skill levels, and some may even be more focused on fun than competition. For athletes who can no longer lace up their cleats, coaching youth sports or volunteering to coach at a nearby school provides a chance to stay involved even if competing is no longer possible.

Yet, much can be done to help homeowners improve their buildingenvelopetoreduceenergy use and increase efficiency. Improving your home’s energy efficiency can help save money, keep you more comfortable, reduce pollution, and prevent global warming.

Celebrating Clara Barton: A Mural Project in Dansville

Dansville is about to welcome a vibrant new addition to its historic Main Street. On June 29th, the community will come together for a unique “Paint Party” to celebrate Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross, o en referred to as the “Angel of the Battlefield.” Residents will help paint Dansville’s newest mural, created by acclaimed muralist Melissa Stratton-Pandina, on the south-facing wall of 170 Main Street, steps away from the historic Chapter 1 House.

Dansville ArtWorks manages this mural project, with funding by the LivCo First Impressions Village Edition grant to bring history and art together in a public space. Melissa hails from Westborough, MA, but her in-laws, Frank and Alice Pandina, live on the mountain in Dansville.

Melissa’s journey as an artist is as fascinating as her work. “I grew up in Germany as an Army brat,” she shares. “I got to see a lot of murals and chalk art growing up and I wanted to do that when I grew up.” Her artistic path led her to the Massachusetts College of Art and Design (MassArt), where she studied under notable working artists. “ e program was tough and only had a 10% graduation rate. So, I got better real fast,” she says.

A er college, Melissa worked as a freelance artist but found it challenging to make a living without business skills, so she worked as a massage therapist while her family was young. Fiberglass public art rekindled her passion, and when her children started school, she devoted herself full-time to art. Melissa’s works have been featured in museum shows, professional artist magazines, and various publications.

“I started to really fall into public art and murals,” she says. She honed her skills further at the Community Mural Institute, where she learned to scale up her work and learned business and logistic skills needed for murals. Today, Melissa aims to complete five large and five small murals each year. Her largest to date spans 6,000 square feet at the Southwick Zoo.

For Melissa, stories are the heart of her inspiration. She says, “I find people fascinating. I really love getting into people’s internal lives; this is why I do a lot of portraits. ese portraits have led me to doing historical murals,” such as the upcoming Clara Barton one. “You can tell so much about a person by their face. And I love to reflect to people the beauty I see looking at them.” She describes the challenge inherent to each project, wanting to see how far she can push herself artistically while representing the feeling and the story behind a subject.

Melissa’s favorite media are oil and large-scale murals, “Oil because I can take my time, build layers, and make sure everything is perfect.

And I love murals because of the challenge to see how big, fast, and accurate I can be.”

Her creative process for murals, especially historical ones, involves extensive research and sketching. “Each mural starts with about 100 thumbnail sketches. Once I’m happy, I go on a scavenger hunt for reference photos, and then I work a photo design up on the computer.” is meticulous process ensures accuracy and ease of projection onto the wall.

e Dansville Clara Barton mural is particularly meaningful to Melissa, as she explains: “My dad was a medic in the army. I grew up around battlefield medicine and I find [Barton’s] role in it fascinating.”

e mural’s goal is to capture Clara Barton’s essence, particularly through her portrait. “My biggest focus is getting that portrait perfect. I really love the lighting and color in the sketch so I can’t wait to make it a reality.”

Melissa appreciates the creative freedom she has had with this project. She says, “Dansville had a short list of things they wanted in the mural, but I had a long leash on how I put those elements in. I feel like I had a large sandbox to play in.”

Melissa’s journey is a testament to perseverance and passion. Her advice to aspiring artists is simple yet profound: “Don’t give up. Be fearless in making mistakes. Your work will never be perfect, but each time it can be less wrong. And that’s the path to good art. All the ‘nos’ don’t matter as long as your work makes you happy.”

As Dansville prepares to celebrate Clara Barton with the new mural, Melissa Stratton-Pandina’s artistry stands as inspiration, inviting the community to engage with their history and each other through the power of art.

For more about Melissa and her work, visit www.deshria.com, and join her and the community on June 29th to be part of Dansville’s legacy. Melissa hopes she and her muraling can be part of some child’s origin story, just as she experienced long ago.
