The Integrative Remission Programs
Reawaken — Your 90-Day Mentorship for Radiant Health
Moderate to high carbohydrate, added sugars and frequent insulin-stimulating dietary habits, such as snacking, drive insulin resistance — a metabolic dysfunction now present in an estimated 88% of US adults¹ — which operates as a common upstream mechanism behind the chronic diseases² responsible for the majority of preventable deaths in the Western world.
The Kidneys
Insulin resistance keeps your kidneys permanently holding onto sodium, as if you're always digesting. The extra water this draws in raises your blood pressure.
The Gut
Gut wall breakdown lets dead bacteria and food fragments into the bloodstream, building arterial plaque, stiffening and narrowing arteries — possibly raising blood pressure. Discover if this is affecting you Take the three questionnaires → to reveal your insulin resistance and gut health status—and get your personal remission roadmap.

What Leading Doctors Say About Insulin Resistance

There are further details that vary to suit your individual needs, and we'll walk through those together.

Book a HOMA-IR Test
Insulin Resistance (IR) is a root cause of most Western diseases. Book a simple blood test from Vitall click here → that confirms your insulin resistance score. This is the often hidden driver for most diseases and can be addressed with a method that includes a no grains diet and intermittent fasting.
Check Your TG/HDL Ratio
The TG/HDL ratio — triglycerides divided by HDL — is a reliable early signal of insulin resistance. Above 1.5 for a leaner frame, or above 2.0 for a larger frame, warrants attention. Ask your GP for a full fasting lipid profile — or check a recent cholesterol test, as the numbers may already be there. See what your ratio means for your frame type →
