You can have any insulin level with exactly same Glucose.

Glucose alone is a terrible proxy for metabolic health. 

We need to ask for fasting insulin.

With nearly 1 in 3 adults showing insulin resistance, routine fasting insulin screening could revolutionize prevention. It enables early intervention—when lifestyle shifts in food, movement, and sleep can still change the outcome.

Hyperinsulinemia can appear a decade or so before type 2 diabetes is diagnosed. Importantly, fasting insulin combined with glucose (via HOMA‑IR) provides a more sensitive measure of early metabolic dysfunction than glucose or HbA1c alone.

Infographic highlighting that normal glucose can mask problems—fasting insulin and HOMA‑IR reveal hidden insulin resistance and true metabolic health.

Fasting blood glucose may look ‘normal,’ but fasting insulin and the HOMA‑IR ratio reveal the hidden story of metabolic health—unmasking early insulin resistance long before diabetes shows up.
