Change in nighttime wake ups
As measured byPROMIS Sleep Disturbance Scale: Over the past 7 days: I had trouble staying asleep
The PROMIS Sleep Disturbance Scale is a validated and widely used assessment tool developed as part of the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) initiative. It is designed to measure the severity of sleep disturbances and disruptions experienced by individuals. This scale includes a range of questions that assess the frequency and impact of various sleep-related issues, such as difficulty falling asleep, nighttime awakenings, and restless sleep. Healthcare professionals and researchers rely on this scale to better understand and quantify sleep problems in patients, enabling them to tailor interventions and treatment strategies to address sleep-related concerns effectively.

Change in waist circumference
As measured byBody Composition Measurement Form: Waist Circumference at the narrowest point (in closest .25 inch)
The Body Composition Measurement Form is specifically crafted to accurately track changes in body measurements relevant to individuals engaged in weight loss or bodybuilding. This form allows for the consistent recording of key physical metrics across various body parts, facilitating the evaluation of fitness progress. By using this form, individuals can obtain a clear picture of the physical changes resulting from their exercise routines and nutritional choices. Each measurement is to be recorded in centimeters to maintain uniformity and precision.

Impact on post meal hunger & fatigue
As measured byAfter Meal Hunger & Fatigue Perception: How would you rate your state of fatigue or sleepiness after your most recent meal?
This survey aims to understand how individuals perceive different stages of hunger and fatigue after their most recent meal. The respondents are required to select the option that best describes their current state of hunger or fullness.. make a choice about how you feel right now.
-
Impact on carb cravings
As measured byCarbohydrate Craving Questionairre: I felt a strong urge to eat sugary or starchy foods (bread, pasta, sweets) that was hard to resist.
The 30-Day Carb Craving & Post-Meal Symptoms Screen is a 5-item self-report tool designed to quantify the frequency and intensity of carbohydrate cravings and 1–4-hour post-meal symptoms (e.g., fatigue, irritability, shakiness) within the last month. These behaviors and sensations commonly co-occur with patterns of insulin dysregulation (including reactive hypoglycemia), making the scale useful for behavioral monitoring and pre/post comparisons in nutrition or lifestyle interventions. While leptin relates more to long-term satiety and body-fat signaling, this instrument focuses on short-term, meal-linked experiences that are more indicative of insulin-related swings.

Insulin Balance Formula – Hormetics Weight Optimization System – 2 bottles
The Insulin Balance Formula is for the 'High Insulin Type' who is struggling with weight loss due to insulin resistance, where cells become less responsive to insulin, leading to elevated blood sugar and fat storage. A cornerstone of the Hormetics Weight Optimization System, this product is doctor-formulated by Dr. Miriam Mikicki, MD and Elwin Robinson.
A Note from the Study Team
Elwin Robinson
Protocol Coach
Why I created this study: With insulin at the heart of metabolic health, the dance between diet, weight, and energy has captivated both scientific and popular discourse. While there are many tools for individuals with diabetes and significant obesity issues, there's less research on tools to help individuals who otherwise have insulin levels in a healthy range, but still have carb cravings, after meal fatigue and mood swings.
My Objective for You: Our quest is to empower you with the knowledge of how a dietary supplement might support optimal insulin levels within a healthy range - and how this might impact weight, fatigue, and cravings. By the end of this study, you'll have a personalized understanding on how the supplement worked for you. This isn't just about data—it's about giving you the tools to optimize your health and make informed decisions about your lifestyle choices. Please note, this study is not designed to diagnose or treat any kind of insulin disorder.
Aims & Objectives: We aim to evaluate the effects of the Insulin Balance Formula on insulin levels, weight, fatigue, and sugar cravings in healthy adults. Participants will gain personalized insights into the product's effectiveness, enabling them to make informed decisions about their health and wellness journey.
Significance & Impact: This study offers an opportunity to scrutinize the intricate relationship between insulin regulation and overall metabolic health. While we anticipate positive outcomes in weight management and reduced cravings, limitations include individual variability and adherence to the protocol. Nonetheless, the potential to influence personal health strategies and contribute to broader nutritional science makes this study a groundbreaking endeavor.
