A formula for Insulin Resistance


(Carmelo Signorello) #1

Found this while searching for any type of insulin resistance test. I have a fast BG of 82-87 and trigs are 82 from November. I was on statins at that time. BG is recent, trigs are from 5 months ago way pre Keto and A1c at that time was 5.2. So by my calculation my IR is 9.5?

I don’t know about all that. Why not just get your fasting insulin or C-Peptide and fasting glucose and calculate your HOMA-IR?

I’m not sure, this was just something to do if you have the info at home since there is no at home insulin test

Be interesting for someone with all the info to compare the 2 methods and see if they track.
