I explored the role of gut dysbiosis in the development of insulin resistance and its progression to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in "Regulation Of Gut Microbiota As A Potential Therapeutic Option For Insulin Resistance" (pending publication).
The paper highlights how an imbalanced gut microbiome contributes to metabolic dysfunction and reviews interventions like diet, prebiotics, probiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation as potential strategies to regulate gut health.
It emphasizes the need for personalized gut microbiota-based therapies as a promising approach to prevent and manage insulin resistance
