HOMA IR; Insulin Resistance Index near me in Noida

HOMA-IR (Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance) test is indicative of insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is a condition where cells no longer respond to insulin, and your body needs to produce more insulin to control blood sugar levels. This test determines how much insulin your pancreas must produce to keep blood sugar levels stable based on your fasting blood sugar and insulin levels. The higher your score, the more problematic your insulin resistance is. This test assesses the risk of developing diabetes and the response to treatment.

The two leading causes of insulin resistance and high HOMA-IR are overeating and being inactive. Eating healthy, staying active, maintaining a healthy weight, and sleeping well are some measures you can take to lower your insulin resistance and prevent type 2 diabetes.
