Take this short quiz to find out if
you're on the road to diabetes!
More importantly, is your doc checking the right labs? The sneaky thing about prediabetes & diabetes is that it can sneak up on you and progress silently... until it shows up as heart attacks, strokes, amputations, dialysis, and wreak havoc on your quality of life! That's why at Functional Kidney Care, we go beyond standard lab tests to look for early warning signs such as inflammation markers and insulin resistance... before it's too late.
Diabetes drugs are the go-to solution for many conventional docs, but they just treat the symptoms... not the underlying cause! And once they stop working, there's not much more those docs can do for you! That's why we use an integrative approach, evaluating all possible causes of metabolic dysfunction & prediabetes so we can help you resolve those naturally, without expensive or toxic drugs.
Are gut issues messing
with your insulin levels?
Trying to "fix" blood sugar issues on its own backfires unless you also address gut issues & inflammation. Today's modern world can pummel the good microbes living in your gut... leading to leaky gut, inflammation & blood sugar imbalances. These imbalances can also create wicked cravings for sugary foods that can be impossible to resist... making you feel powerless.
