Calculate your HOMA-IR score to assess insulin resistance using fasting glucose and insulin levels from your blood panel.
Normal
| HOMA-IR Score | 1.78 |
| Insulin Sensitivity | Normal |
| Fasting Glucose | 90 mg/dL |
| Glucose Category | Normal |
| Fasting Insulin | 8 ฮผIU/mL |
| Insulin Category | Optimal |
| HOMA-ฮฒ (Beta Cell Function) | 107% |

HOMA-IR = (Fasting Insulin ร Fasting Glucose) รท 405
Glucose in mg/dL | Insulin in ฮผIU/mL
Below 1.0 is optimal. Below 2.0 is normal. Above 2.0 suggests early insulin resistance. Above 2.9 indicates significant insulin resistance.
Insulin resistance occurs when cells don't respond properly to insulin. The pancreas compensates by producing more insulin, eventually leading to elevated blood glucose.
HOMA-IR = (Fasting Insulin [ฮผIU/mL] ร Fasting Glucose [mg/dL]) / 405.
Yes. Exercise (especially resistance training), low-carb or low-glycemic diet, weight loss, adequate sleep, and reduced stress can all improve insulin sensitivity.
Ask your doctor to include fasting insulin with your standard blood panel. It's not typically included in routine panels but can be requested. A normal fasting insulin is below 10 ฮผIU/mL.
