Insulin Resistance & Metabolic Syndrome

Insulin resistance is the root cause behind Type 2 diabetes, obesity, PCOS, metabolic syndrome, and much of cardiovascular disease -- yet it is rarely tested for or treated until significant damage has already occurred. At CornerMed, we test for insulin resistance early using fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, and advanced metabolic panels. We then create reversal protocols combining evidence-based medications (Metformin, GLP-1 agonists, SGLT-2 inhibitors), targeted supplementation (berberine, inositol, magnesium), dietary strategies, and exercise guidance.

Who it is for

Insulin resistance treatment is for anyone with prediabetes, metabolic syndrome, obesity, or PCOS.

Prediabetes or family history of Type 2 diabetes

Central obesity (excess abdominal fat)

High triglycerides or low HDL cholesterol

Fatigue after meals or intense sugar cravings

PCOS or other hormone imbalances linked to insulin

Questions

A fasting blood glucose alone misses most insulin resistance. We test fasting insulin, calculate HOMA-IR, and review your full lipid panel and inflammatory markers to get a comprehensive metabolic picture.
