Fasting insulin is done to measure the serum insulin in the body. An insulin test measures the insulin levels in your blood. It is used to diagnose hypoglycemia, insulin resistance, and other health issues.

Dr. Shaik Suggests...

Take a OMEGA - 3 & OMEGA - 6 FATTY ACID Test or Take a EPSTEIN BARR VIRUS ANTIBODIES TO VCA IGG & IGM Test
