Recent research shows diets rich in omega-3’s from fish—including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) - protect against insulin resistance and obesity in animal studies and increase insulin sensitivity in healthy humans.
A recent study published in the journal Diabetologia tested the anti-diabetic effects of EPA and DHA on an insulin sensitizer called adiponectin. The researchers evaluated the effects of EPA and DHA on an obesity-promoting diet that was rich in vegetable oils.
After 5 weeks, the researchers looked at markers of blood lipids and how the subjects metabolized glucose. They also measured adiponectin and leptin. Researchers found that the EPA and DHA boosted adiponectin, helping to increase the body’s sensitivity to insulin and reduce inflammation.
Get the benefits of EPA and DHA by dining on omega-3 rich wild salmon including these delicious recipes. And supplement your diet with fish oil (try Carlson's which is tested for purity). 
High Blood Sugar = High Colon Cancer Risk
When you metabolize carbohydrates, your body produces insulin. And when the insulin switch is flipped to the “on” position, another compound is made at the same time: C-peptide.
The more insulin you make… the more C-peptide you make.
A recent study of more than 15,000 men found that those with the highest levels of C-peptide were 300% more likely to develop colon cancer as those with the lowest.
Flip your insulin – and your colon cancer switch – OFF! Learn how in Your Guide to Living a Low-Glycemic Lifestyle and discover the safe levels of C-peptide and how to get tested in 20 Lifesaving Tests Your Doctor Hasn’t Performed (And Should!).
