Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA- IR)

What it measures

Analysis of Pancreatic Endocrine Function and Diabetes Diagnosis

Clinical significance

HOMA-IR was calculated according to the formula: fasting insulin (microU/L) x fasting glucose (nmol/L). Low HOMA-IR means that you are sensitive to insulin. High HOMA-IR relates to your level of insulin resistance. The higher the number, the more resistant you are to the message of insulin.

<2.60 is a normal HOMA-IR range; 2.60–3.80 - “borderline high” without labeling these individuals as having insulin resistance; >3.80 - “high” having clear correlates of insulin resistance.

You can take steps to reverse insulin resistance and prevent type 2 diabetes:

1. Exercise. Go for at least 30 minutes a day of moderate activity (like brisk walking) 5 or more days a week. 2. Get to a healthy weight. 3. Eat a healthy diet. 4. Take medications.

My journey back to health with Healsens. Thank you!!

That's when I turned to a nutritionist and ordered a blood test through Healsens. … Four months later, I retested. My biological age dropped to 24—nearly a decade younger than my real age.

Useful app to track analytics and 2nd opinion

It helps me track main parameters, understanding what do they mean and correlations, and make critical analysis to make preventative changes. Hope too see new fichas soon!

Everything is great! Excellent app! It's very convenient for storing all your test results! The only thing I wish was that you could record blood pressure readings for both arms, as this is sometimes important for blood pressure monitoring.

A useful app. It motivates me to lead a healthy lifestyle and monitor my diet. After the test results, I decided to change my diet – I cut out flour and chocolate. I lost 2 kg in about a week. We'll see how the test results look over time.
