Abstract
Not all people exposed to diabetes-promoting lifestyle factors progress to overt type 2 diabetes. The emerging concept of hormesis provides an explanation for the resistance to metabolic stress. Hormesis requires limited stress or damage which elicits an adaptive repair and protective response which renders the organism resistant to further metabolic stress.Entities:
