What Metabolic Tests to Request and How to Decode The Results - The Guide

The 5 Numbers Your Doctor Calls "Normal" — But Aren't Optimal

If you've been told your labs look "fine" but you still feel tired, foggy, and not-quite-right, this is for you.

This free guide shows you:

  • The 5 numbers from one fasting blood draw that reveal insulin resistance — often years before standard markers catch it

  • Exactly which tests to request (most doctors won't offer them unless you ask)

  • What "optimal" actually looks like vs. the lab's wide "normal" range

  • The two free calculations (HOMA-IR and triglyceride-to-HDL ratio) most labs never run for you

No guesswork. No fear tactics. Just the numbers that actually tell the truth about your metabolic health.
