If you have a degree of insulin resistance it will help lower your insulin levels for a longer period of time. And that will help prevent/improve insulin resistance. So yes, skipping a single breakfast will help.

What it will not do is correct years of problems by skipping one meal. If a person is insulin resistant, depending on how bad it is, may take significant time for improvement.

The best thing about skipping today's breakfast, is it sets you up to do the same tomorrow. Do that enough and you will see health improvements if you have health issues.

It is harder to do if you are on a standard high carb diet because hunger signals cause you to be hungry as your body is expecting that glucose infusion. It takes the body a few days or a few weeks, depending, on becoming efficient at burning fat for fuel. The longer it has went on burning glucose almost exclusively, the more time it will take to get "fat adapted".

The effort is well worth the rewards, in my opinion.

You can do intermittant fasting on a high carb diet and it is helpful. Doing it on a low carb diet is easier and even more beneficial, if you are metabolically challenged.
