Insulin turns off all the regulators, the "checks and balances", on your cells, and signals for uncontrolled anabolism in the context of mitgated cytoprotection.

Quote:
"In subconfluent hepatocytes insulin inhibition of IGFBP-1 mRNA levels was blocked by inhibiting PI3 kinase activation and there was a corresponding inhibition of Foxo1/Foxo3 phosphorylation. In these same cells inhibition of the insulin effect by rapamycin occurred in the presence of insulin induced Foxo1/Foxo3 phosphorylation. In confluent hepatocytes insulin could not activate the PI3 kinase - Akt - Foxo1/Foxo3 pathway but still inhibited IGFBP-1 gene expression in an mTOR dependent manner." - Endocrinology
