Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Dysfunction: Insights from Organic Acids Testing
Event Details

Presenter
Insulin resistance is at the core of many chronic conditions—from fatigue and weight gain to cardiometabolic disease. In this 40-minute webinar, followed by a 20-minute lab interpretation and program design segment, Dr. Kalish will explore how organic acids testing offers unique insight into the biochemical roots of metabolic dysfunction. You’ll learn how to identify early metabolic stress patterns that precede overt blood glucose abnormalities—and how to personalize treatment accordingly.
Don’t miss this opportunity to elevate your lab interpretation and program design skills with targeted metabolic support protocols.
Highlights:
- Identify organic acid markers associated with glycolysis and beta-oxidation that reflect early signs of insulin resistance.
- Learn to design impactful supplement protocols as you better understand the role of nutrient cofactors (e.g., B-vitamins, magnesium, lipoic acid) in carbohydrate metabolism and fat burning (carnitine, riboflavin).
- Assess the connection between mitochondrial overload and impaired glucose utilization.
- Interpret organic acid test patterns that correlate with clinical symptoms of metabolic dysfunction, even with blood work that shows “normal” results.
- Apply case examples to integrate organic acids data into clinical decision-making for patients with insulin resistance or early metabolic syndrome.

Dr. Daniel Kalish is dedicated to teaching doctors Functional Medicine philosophy and practices. He has trained over 1,000 practitioners worldwide in The Kalish Method, which solves patient challenges with a proven lab based approach through the Kalish Institute’s educational programs.
In May 2016, a research study published by two Mayo Clinic researchers confirmed the efficacy of The Kalish Method showing significant improvements in GI health, and quality of life in the study participants. The study was based on Dr. Kalish’s model of Functional Medicine based on 25 years of successful clinical results. Graduates of The Kalish Institute include practitioners ranging from Dr. Mercola’s medical staff, to Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic physicians.
