The reason that people develop problems with their pancreas leading to an overproduction of insulin and insulin resistance is that many people ingest too many processed foods that have refined sugars. This means that the sugar does not take very long to digest, and is unloaded into the bloodstream causing the body to go into panic mode.

The adrenal glands will then respond by sending insulin, creating a fight or flight situation within the body. Glucose will be diverted to the muscles, and more sugar will be produced by the liver. This causes more insolent to be released on an intermittent basis in heavy amounts, leading to type II diabetes.More info on:
