About your metabolism

Blood sugar can look normal for years while insulin is working overtime to keep it there. These markers pick up insulin resistance well before a diabetes diagnosis and show how your body handles fuel day to day.

01
Catch insulin resistance early

Fasting insulin often rises years before glucose does.

02
Three time windows

Today (glucose), a few weeks (fructosamine), three months (A1c).

03
Pairs with your DEXA

Visceral fat and insulin show the same problem from two angles.

What we measure

● BOTH PANELS
● 160 PANEL ONLY
Glucose
Fasting blood sugar at the moment of your draw.
BOTH
Hemoglobin A1c
Average blood sugar over roughly three months.
BOTH
Fasting Insulin
How hard your pancreas works to keep glucose in range; often the first marker to rise.
BOTH
C-Peptide
Confirms how much insulin your body makes on its own.
BOTH
HOMA-IR
Insulin-resistance score calculated from glucose and insulin.
BOTH
Leptin
Fullness hormone made by fat tissue; high levels can signal leptin resistance.
BOTH
Uric Acid
Linked to fructose intake, gout and metabolic stress.
BOTH
Adiponectin
Fat-derived hormone that improves insulin sensitivity; low levels are a warning sign.
160 ONLY
Fructosamine
Average blood sugar over 2–3 weeks; picks up changes faster than A1c.
160 ONLY

Our biomarker panels are screening tools, not a diagnosis. Results are reviewed by a licensed physician. Laboratory services are performed by independent CLIA- and CAP-certified labs. Some markers are sex-specific. Dexaslim does not diagnose or treat disease.
