Insulin Resistance is an often silent condition that affects millions of Americans.

As a factor that has previously been under-recognized by patients and physicians, Insulin Resistance is an important precursor to the epidemics of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Sheri Colberg, PhD, FACSM

Dr. Sheri Colberg is Director of Exercise Physiology for Insulite Laboratories where she develops exercise protocols that focus on the prevention and management of insulin-related disorders. An Associate Professor of Exercise Science at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia, she is funded by the American Diabetes Association among others for her research on exercise and diabetes, including prevention, control, and reversal of diabetes and its complications with physical activity. Dr. Colberg is Executive Director of the Lifelong Exercise Institute which strives to improve the health of anyone suffering from diabetes, pre-diabetes or obesity, and to enhance lifelong health with physical activity and related lifestyle improvements.

She is the author of numerous articles and seven books, including The Diabetic Athlete, Diabetes-Free Kids, The 7 Step Diabetes Fitness Plan, 50 Secrets of the Longest Living People with Diabetes, and The Science of Staying Young. She is also the co-author on an upcoming book, "Biggest Loser" Matt Hoover's Guide to Life, Love, and Losing Weight, to be released in the fall of 2008, along with the 2nd Edition of her first book, The Diabetic Athlete's Handbook. Dr. Colberg is also the author of an upcoming book, Diabetes? No Problema, to be published in Spring 2009. www.shericolberg.com.

My goal is to help individuals who are affected by Insulin Resistance recognize that exercise is of critical importance to their well being and assist them in making regular physical activity a lifelong habit.

Clinical research has proven that weight loss, dietary modifications and exercise each independently improve Insulin Resistance and slow the progression of Cardiovascular Diseases and Diabetes. Thus, our approach is to foster lifestyle change from this comprehensive perspective, allowing each person to maximize benefits to their overall health.

He is also certified in Occupational Medicine and Acupuncture for pain control. He received his M.D. at the University of Michigan and was previously Assistant Professor of Family Medicine at the University of California Medical School in San Francisco.

What I find compelling about the Insulite Systems is how comprehensive they are in dealing with what I believe will be shown to be a major cause of many degenerative diseases – the inappropriate build up of insulin in the blood. The many well researched ingredients in the supplements attack the problem of Insulin Resistance from a variety of biochemical pathways derived from many different, well accepted theories and clinical studies. In addition, the support for lifestyle changes and the follow-up that we offer is unlike any other product or system sold in the marketplace.

Insulin resistance is the most insidious factor affecting our health and well-being today. Reversing this condition requires an integrative approach that encourages proper nutrition, increased physical activity, and provides necessary information and emotional support.

Remember what you do to maintain good health when you leave the doctor’s office is just as important as anything the doctor can do. In fact, you are the most important part of the process of staying well.
