Glucose to Insulin Ratio Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Glucose to Insulin Ratio is:

\[ \text{GIR} = \frac{G}{I} \]

Where:

\( \text{GIR} \) is the Glucose to Insulin Ratio.
\( G \) is the glucose level.
\( I \) is the insulin level.

Example

Let's say the glucose level (G) is 100 mg/dL and the insulin level (I) is 10 µU/mL. The glucose to insulin ratio (GIR) would be calculated as follows:

\[ \text{GIR} = \frac{100}{10} = 10 \]

So, the glucose to insulin ratio is 10.

What is Glucose to Insulin Ratio?

The Glucose to Insulin Ratio (GIR) is a measure used to assess insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. It is calculated by dividing the glucose level by the insulin level. This ratio helps in understanding how effectively the body is using insulin to manage blood glucose levels, which is important in the diagnosis and management of conditions like diabetes.

Insulin to Glucose Ratio Calculation

Formula: \( \text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Insulin}}{\text{Glucose}} \)

\( \text{Ratio} \): Insulin to glucose ratio
\( \text{Insulin} \): Insulin level (µU/mL)
\( \text{Glucose} \): Glucose level (mg/dL)

Example: \( \text{Ratio} = \frac{15}{90} \)

Ratio: Insulin to glucose ratio
Insulin: 15
Glucose: 90

Fasting Glucose to Insulin Ratio Calculation

Formula: \( \text{FGIR} = \frac{\text{Fasting Glucose}}{\text{Fasting Insulin}} \)

\( \text{FGIR} \): Fasting glucose to insulin ratio
\( \text{Fasting Glucose} \): Fasting glucose level (mg/dL)
\( \text{Fasting Insulin} \): Fasting insulin level (µU/mL)

Example: \( \text{FGIR} = \frac{100}{10} \)

FGIR: Fasting glucose to insulin ratio
Fasting Glucose: 100
Fasting Insulin: 10

Insulin to Carbohydrate Ratio Calculation

Formula: \( \text{ICR} = \frac{500}{\text{Total Daily Insulin}} \)

\( \text{ICR} \): Insulin to carbohydrate ratio
\( \text{Total Daily Insulin} \): Total daily insulin dose (units)

Example: \( \text{ICR} = \frac{500}{50} \)

ICR: Insulin to carbohydrate ratio
Total Daily Insulin: 50
