Insulin Sensitivity Management

Meaning

Insulin Sensitivity Management describes the clinical strategy and ongoing process of monitoring, maintaining, and improving the body’s responsiveness to the hormone insulin over time. This continuous management is vital for individuals at risk for or currently experiencing metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes, or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It involves a combination of lifestyle modifications, including specific dietary strategies and regular physical activity, and sometimes targeted pharmacological interventions. The primary objective is to sustain optimal glucose homeostasis and mitigate the long-term systemic damage associated with insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia.
