What Is Insulin Resistance—and Why You Should Act Now
Insulin resistance means your cells aren’t responding well to insulin, leading to elevated blood sugar, belly fat, fatigue, and risk of type 2 diabetes. The good news: it’s reversible with the right natural approach.
Why Choose Natural Supplements for Insulin Sensitivity
Rather than relying solely on medication, targeted supplements can improve insulin function, reduce inflammation, stabilise blood sugar, curb cravings, and support weight loss—especially when combined with a healthy lifestyle.
Metagenics Supplements to Reverse Insulin Resistance
1. Insinase (formerly Insinase®) – 3 tablets daily
A patented kinase modulator formula clinically shown to support healthy insulin signalling and control fasting insulin and triglycerides. Built with RIAA (iso‑alpha acids) and acacia extract to rebalance insulin sensitivity.

2. MetaGlycemX – 2 tablets daily
Combines green tea (EGCG), cinnamon, alpha‑lipoic acid, plus B‑vitamins, chromium, zinc and vitamin C. Supports glucose metabolism, insulin function, and antioxidant protection.

3. Meta Lipoate® 300 (Alpha‑Lipoic Acid 300) – 1 tablet daily
A potent antioxidant with dual roles in supporting healthy glucose uptake and protecting nerve cells—key for metabolic and cardiovascular health.

4. Magnesium Glycinate – 200–400 mg nightly
Supports insulin receptor sensitivity, glucose control, stress resilience, and improves sleep—addressing several drivers of insulin resistance.

5. Zinc Glycinate – 15–30 mg daily
Essential for insulin production, signaling, and metabolic enzyme function.

6. Vitamin D3 1000 – 1 000 IU daily
Supports insulin sensitivity and is often deficient in South Africans—widely linked with improved glucose regulation.

FAQs
Q: When will I notice improvements?
Initial benefits (energy, appetite, sleep) often emerge in 4–6 weeks; blood sugar improvements in 8–12 weeks with consistent use.
Q: Can I stop medication?
Supplements support metabolic health, but any changes to diabetes medication should be supervised by your healthcare provider.
Q: Are these safe together?
Yes, natural, well-researched ingredients—just monitor blood sugar if on medication, and ensure zinc and magnesium are balanced.
