NameTimeMethod
Reduction in Insulin Resistance measured by HOMA-IR12 months from intervention

Homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) is a method for assessing β-cell function and insulin resistance (IR) from basal (fasting) glucose and insulin levels.

Reduction in glycated Haemoglobin measured: HBA1c12 months from intervention

HbA1c refers to glycated haemoglobin. It develops when haemoglobin, joins with glucose in the blood.
