That's an interesting take on it. I guess it all depends on what we consider to be the precise definition of insulin resistance and hyperinsulinaemia, and how different levels of insulin could apply to different individuals at different sizes.

I can see his point in a way, I mean, we don't want to go as far as zero insulin all the time because then we'd just waste away completely; think T1Ds pre-discovery of insulin. I guess at an individual level it's more a case of keeping one's insulin levels in line with one's individual health needs, even if for most of us with health issues, that still generally means trying to lower our insulin.
