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 Stonewood Health, 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.
