Abstract
Insulin resistance (IR) is an important cause of morbidity. Sedentary lifestyle, dietary habits and heredity plays role. IR becomes more important when its relationship with obesity, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia is considered. It can be seen in 25% of the healthy population. IR is tried to be tolerated with hyperinsulinemia to achieve euglycemia. It is clinially important to identify the type 2 diabetes risk and /or cardiovascular disease. HOMA and QUICKI are reliable methods to measure IR. Treatment is modulation of life style including diet. The medical treatment is a good option when diet and exercise do not work.
