you can also just look at a triglyceride to HDL ratio because that is a pretty decent proxy for insulin resistance

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
If they have really high triglycerides and really low HDL cholesterol, it's much more likely they're going to be insulin resistant.
And yourself looks like your ratio is approximately one to one, so would not expect you to be insulin resistant or prediabetic.
the ratio of triglyceride to HDL cholesterol when both are in milligrams per deciliter you know is reasonably associated with insulin resistance and the higher that ratio the more insulin resistant they are
