@lifeofdaisyray: INSULIN & SODIUM ..👇👇👇 💥High insulin levels can lead to sodium retention in the kidneys, which can contribute to hypertension (high blood pressure). This is because insulin stimulates sodium reabsorption in the kidneys, primarily in the distal nephron segments. ✨Here's a more detailed explanation: 💥Insulin's Role in Sodium Reabsorption: Insulin directly stimulates sodium transport in the kidneys, increasing the amount of sodium that is reabsorbed back into the bloodstream rather than being excreted in the urine. 🫀Impact on Blood Pressure: By increasing sodium reabsorption, insulin can lead to increased blood volume, which in turn can raise blood pressure. This effect of insulin on sodium handling is relevant in several clinical situations, including: ✅ Hypertension: Insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia are common in individuals with hypertension, particularly those with metabolic syndrome. ✅ Obesity: Insulin's role in sodium retention is thought to contribute to the development of hypertension in obesity. ✅ Diabetes: Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes can be associated with changes in sodium handling due to insulin's effects on the kidneys. #LearnOnTikTok #MetabolicHealth #insulinresistance #heartdisease #diabetes #obesity #hypertension
