One of my friends took this medical test based on my suggestion, and he got a wonderful result — truly impressive and highly appreciated.
At 45 years of age, having an Insulin Resistance score of 2.26 is an excellent indicator. It suggests that in the near future he is at a much lower risk of developing many health problems such as:
Cancer
Skin disorders
Kidney diseases
Nervous system issues
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
Thyroid disorders
Heart disease
Fatty liver
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) (not applicable for men)
Neurological issues, including conditions like Alzheimer’s
Kidney and eye damage
Mark my words — maintaining good insulin sensitivity is one of the strongest indicators of long-term health.
Earlier, I had suggested some of my close friends and relatives to check their fasting insulin levels and monitor insulin resistance.
One of my close friends (age 48), whose brother is also a doctor, was diagnosed with a fasting insulin level of 11.
One of my distant relatives (age 45) had an HbA1c of 5.5 in 2023, but his fasting insulin was 27. I immediately advised him to take precautions and improve his lifestyle. Unfortunately, he could not follow the suggestions, and now in 2025 his HbA1c has increased to 7, and he has started medication.
Another distant relative (age 45) and close companion was diagnosed with a fasting insulin level of 12.
Finally, in 2023 my wife (40) had an HbA1c of 5.3 but her fasting insulin was 25. Recently, in January 2026, her fasting insulin reduced to 14 after taking better care of her health. I am glad we could act early and prevent her from falling into potential health problems.
My only intention in sharing this is that I do not want any of my close friends or companions to develop diseases associated with insulin resistance in the future. Early awareness and timely action can prevent many health problems.
