Fasting insulin

Core panel — run every month

What it indicates

How much insulin the pancreas is releasing while you are not digesting a meal.

Why a series helps

Insulin varies more between days than glucose does, which makes one reading hard to place and a run of them considerably more readable.

What this page does not tell you

What a particular Fasting insulin result means depends on you: your history, your medication, why the test was taken. Ziro does not interpret results for individuals and does not diagnose. If something in your results warrants a conversation, that conversation is with a doctor, and your results are downloadable so you can bring them.
