Insulin resistance increases cancer risk due to excess glucose.  Glucose is like cancer fertilizer.  It helps cancerous cells grow and even invade surrounding tissure and organs.  The best way to curtail the threat is to increase insulin sensitivity, thereby removng the cancer fertilizer from the blood - or at least lowering it.  Cancer cells are greedy, and when glucose is lowered, they commit suicide - known technically as apoptosis.  Reversing insulin resistance can be an easy 10 step process that modulates our hormones  - I call it Hormone Intelligence Therapy (HIT).  Read the Fact Sheet here.
