Laborexpres INSULIN RESISTANCE panel
General information
INSULIN RESISTANCE Package – Early Detection and Metabolic Health Assessment
The INSULIN RESISTANCE Package is designed to evaluate carbohydrate metabolism and identify early metabolic disturbances that may lead to type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, weight gain, and hormonal imbalance. The combination of essential laboratory markers provides a precise assessment of insulin sensitivity and the risk of developing metabolic disorders.
Insulin resistance is a condition in which cells do not respond effectively to insulin. This leads to elevated insulin levels and gradual metabolic imbalance. If not detected early, it may progress to type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hormonal disorders.
Regular monitoring of glucose, insulin, and the HOMA‑IR index allows timely lifestyle adjustments, improved nutrition, increased physical activity, and medical intervention when needed
What does the package include?
Glucose
Shows current blood sugar levels. Elevated values may indicate prediabetes or impaired glucose tolerance.
Insulin
A key marker for assessing insulin sensitivity. High insulin levels with normal glucose are typical for insulin resistance.
HOMA‑IR Index
Calculated from glucose and insulin. The most widely used marker for evaluating insulin resistance and metabolic risk.
Lipid Profile
Assesses cholesterol and triglycerides. Lipid abnormalities often accompany insulin resistance and increase cardiovascular risk.
Urine – General Chemical Analysis
Detects early metabolic changes such as glucose, ketones, or protein in the urine.
