The Spectrum of Metabolic Health
Metabolic health refers to optimal cellular energy utilization and blood glucose regulation, free from metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, or chronic systemic inflammation.
Key Biomarkers for Metabolic Vitality
- Fasting Blood Glucose: Optimal range between 70 to 99 mg/dL.
- Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c): Reflects 3-month average glycation; values below 5.7% indicate healthy baseline insulin sensitivity.
- Visceral Adiposity & Waist-to-Height Ratio: Maintaining waist circumference under half your height significantly reduces liver fat accumulation.
