[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 2046540, member: 219467"] Your Insulin resistance score is great but that could be being skewed by the high Fasting glucose. I'm unconvinced that fasting insulin is measured often enough for there to be a true reference range so yours looks low but it also moves around just like blood glucose I'm sure maybe depending on what you have eaten. A 14 hour pre test fast will probably also have had an impact as your body will produce insulin on demand probably rather than have lots swimming round doing nothing. That could well explain your low figure. Mine has been 3.41 7.85 5.47 over the three tests I've had over the years the lowest was after the longest fasting period but almost 2 years ago the others are more recent and when I would have thought I was more metabolically healthy.. go figure!
