Description

Insulin resistance is the silent disruptor at the heart of chronic disease, often missed in traditional diagnostics until it’s too late. It precedes the rise of blood sugar levels by 10-15 years, making it the perfect point for early intervention to prevent the onset of diabetes, heart disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative conditions. Yet, many clinicians remain unaware of its early markers and rely soley on incomplete tests like fasting glucose or A1c.

In this training, led by Cindi Lockhart, RDN, LD, IFNCP, a board-certified integrative and functional nutrition practitioner with over 30 years of experience, you’ll uncover the hidden signs and subtle symptoms that traditional assessments can overlook. Cindi’s expertise in cardiometabolic health, women’s health, and chronic disease prevention and management brings both authority and real-world insights to her guidance.

You’ll gain clarity on common signs and objective lab markers that reveal insulin resistance in its earliest stages. Beyond simply recognizing it, you’ll understand how to identify and address the root causes – including diet, lifestyle, stress, dysbiosis and environmental toxins – that drive insulin resistance and keep patients stuck in a cycle of worsening health.

Walk away with practical, evidence-based approaches that go beyond managing symptoms, equipping you to prevent or reverse the trajectory of cardiometabolic disease. Be the clinician who busts myths, fills gaps in standard care, and brings this essential, often-missed assessment to the forefront of patient health.
