Understanding PIR: A Breakthrough in Diabetes Care
Physiological Insulin Resensitization (PIR) is a groundbreaking treatment type that works differently than standard diabetes treatments. Instead of giving you more insulin, which can lead to insulin resistance, PIR mimics your pancreas and copies your body's physiological insulin patterns.
Using an IV pump, we deliver insulin in timed cycles that match your body's rhythm. This helps reset your natural insulin response and can lead to improved blood sugar control with reduced dependence on medication.
PIR is meant to complement any type of existing diabetes treatment you’re undergoing, not completely replace it.
How PIR Can Help You
Living with diabetes doesn't mean compromising your quality of life. PIR brings significant benefits, including:
Improved Blood Sugar Control
Better blood sugar control with fewer ups and downs that can make management difficult.
Reduced Insulin Dependence
Less dependence on insulin over time, allowing your body to work naturally.
Alleviation of Complications
Help with diabetes-related problems like nerve pain, vision issues, kidney issues, and more.
Lower Doses of Medications
PIR can possibly lower doses of diabetes medications, making it far easier to manage your condition.
Why PIR Works Better
Regular insulin treatments can sometimes cause insulin resistance, making it harder to achieve control of your blood sugar. PIR is different – it works with your body's natural timing and rhythyms to help insulin work better by mimicking your pancreas. It also complements your existing treatments and doesn’t replace them.
Other therapies, in comparison, may create long‒term complications because they aren’t as easy on your body.
