Insulin Resistance

There has recently been some interest from horse owners in learning about insulin resistance in their animals.  Insulin resistance occurs when cells become resistant to the glucose uptake action of insulin.  Veterinarians are able to diagnose insulin resistance with a blood sample.  Please see some very important information from the University of Connecticut for more details at:  http://animalscience.uconn.edu/extension../publications/insulinresistance.htm
