HOMA INDEX +HbA1c
This blood test consists of:
- * Insulin (S)
- * Glucose (NAF)
- Homa index calculation
- * HbA1c ( eb )(looks back 3 months at average blood sugar level
With this test we measure the amount of glucose and insulin in your blood after a period of at least 12 hours of fasting.
Based on these values, we can calculate whether insulin and glucose are in balance or whether there is insulin resistance or (pre)diabetes 2.
In addition, this value is a good indicator of the success of your health efforts.
It is wise to repeat this test after a while.
For this test you must be sober. This means: From 8:00 p.m. the night before the blood draw, do not eat. From 8:00 p.m. you may only drink water.
If you want even more information about your metabolic health, you can add these tests using the sliders to the right.
- Lipid profile: Measuring cholesterol levels, triglycerides and HDL and LDL cholesterol can help assess cardiovascular risk, which is often linked to insulin resistance.
- C-peptide: Measuring C-peptide can give information about the amount of insulin your body is producing.
- Leptin and adiponectin: These hormones are involved in the regulation of metabolism and can provide valuable information about fat metabolism.
- Inflammatory markers: measuring inflammatory markers such as hs-CRP (high sensitive C-reactive protein) can help identify low-grade inflammation, which is often associated with insulin resistance.
