Yes, there's also some correlation with balding and heart disease. I doubt it's true in all cases, though. My A1C is under 5, my HOMA score is under 1, my insulin and c-peptide are barely detectable, yet I've been balding since I was 18 and was completely bald by 30. *shrug*I hadn’t explicitly read that androgenic alopecia was an early manifestation of insulin resistance. Quite interesting - another relationship between a broken glucose metabolism and hair loss.

I’m finally getting down to 10% fat in my diet. I hope the hair keeps improving as my fat % goes down and carbs go up up up.
