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.

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.
