A: HOMA-IR stands for Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance. It's a method used to quantify insulin resistance and beta-cell function, calculated from fasting glucose and fasting insulin levels. A higher HOMA-IR score indicates greater insulin resistance.
A: The formula for HOMA-IR is: (Fasting Insulin (µIU/mL) * Fasting Glucose (mg/dL)) / 405. If glucose is measured in mmol/L, the formula is: (Fasting Insulin (µIU/mL) * Fasting Glucose (mmol/L)) / 22.5.
A: Generally, a HOMA-IR score below 1.0 indicates good insulin sensitivity. Scores between 1.0 and 2.0 may suggest early insulin resistance, and scores above 2.0 typically indicate significant insulin resistance. However, these are general guidelines, and interpretation should always be done by a healthcare professional.
A: No, the 'AI-Powered Metabolic Risk Assessment' provides a *simulated* general evaluation of potential metabolic health risks based on your HOMA-IR score and general health knowledge. It is for informational purposes only and **does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment**. Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional for any health concerns.
A: The 'AI-Powered Lifestyle Suggestions' offer *simulated* general advice on diet and exercise that are commonly associated with improving insulin sensitivity. These are not personalized recommendations and **should not replace advice from a doctor, dietitian, or certified fitness professional**. Always consult with a healthcare provider before making significant lifestyle changes.
A: If you input multiple HOMA-IR readings, the 'AI-Powered Trend Analysis' provides a *simulated* interpretation of how your scores might be changing over time or what hypothetical changes could influence them. This is a creative simulation for conceptual understanding and **does not perform real-time medical data analysis or prediction**.
A: This feature provides *simulated* clear and concise explanations of HOMA-IR, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and other relevant concepts, helping you understand the terminology without complex medical jargon.
A: You can easily copy the calculated results to your clipboard or download them as a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file for spreadsheets, or as a JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) file for programmatic use.
