Diabetes In America Today

Did you know diabetes and its associated complications affect over 34 million Americans? An additional 88 million Americans are prediabetic, and in 2019, diabetes caused $476 billion in healthcare expenditures.

I'S TIME FOR A CHANGE!

Diabetes has afflicted people for thousands of years; this broadly misunderstood and draining disease causes many people to feel overwhelmed by the unrelenting symptoms.

Finally, with PIR (Physiologic Insulin Resensitization), we can introduce hope. With PIR treatment, many individuals with diabetes and other metabolic disorders have experienced relief and improvement from the following:

  • Chronic Pain
  • Fatigue
  • Weight Gain
  • Weight Loss
  • Blurred Vision
  • Headaches
  • Brain Fog
  • Sexual Performance
  • Wound Healing Ability
  • Dry Mouth and Dry Skin
  • Numbness and Tingling
  • Overeating
  • Frequent Urination
  • And much more!

What Is It & How Does It Work?

What Is PIR?

Physiologic Insulin Resensitization (PIR) is a ground-breaking, multi-patented system that provides an inventive way of providing customized patient care where insulin is administered as a hormone rather than a drug. IV access is connected to a precision infusion pump programmed to deliver insulin in a way that simulates normal glucose metabolism. Blood sugar can now more readily enter each cell and be converted into energy. By using insulin in this manner, we can bio-mimic normal glucose metabolism, which leads to:

  • Reduced insulin resistance.
  • An increased amount of blood sugar entering the cell.
  • An increase in the conversion of sugar into energy.

Increasing cellular energy allows damaged tissues and organs to grow, repair, and regenerate. In many cases, this approach has shown the ability to stabilize and, in some cases, reverse the complications of diabetes and other metabolic disorders.

How Does PIR Work?

  • Insulin as a Hormone vs. a Drug - The key is using insulin as a hormone rather than a drug.
  • Physiologic Administration –By mimicking physiologic secretion profiles, insulin receptor activity is upregulated, and insulin resistance is diminishe –Improved sensitivity facilitates carbohydrate processing, improved metabolism, and greater ATP production. This allows damaged tissues and organs to repair and regenerate. Thus, our modality not only stabilizes but, in many instances, reverses complications of diabetes.
  • Insulin Sensitization –Improved sensitivity facilitates carbohydrate processing, improved metabolism, and greater ATP production. This allows damaged tissues and organs to repair and regenerate. Thus, our modality not only stabilizes but, in many instances, reverses complications of diabetes
  • Cellular Health –By reducing inflammatory mediators and providing greater cellular energy, this treatment has not only stabilized but, in many instances, has reversed complications of diabetes and other metabolic disorders.

Info For Our Patients

Are You Ready To Get Started?

Consultation

  • Consultations generally take 60 - 90 minutes to review your medical history, provide an explanation of the process, and answer any questions that you may have.

Qualifying Exam & Lab Work

  • During this stage we will conduct a qualifying examination and obtain any necessary lab work in the event that your labs are not up to date.

Treatment Plan Determination

  • If you are approved for your treatment, your clinician will create your individualized infusion plan based on your current health status and lab results.

Treatment Begins

  • Initial treatment can be as long as 3 hours and then decrease in duration and frequency over about a 6-week period. The typical maintenance phase is 2 hours every 4 to 6 weeks
