Discover how connecting with experienced medical providers through Eden’s platform may support your journey toward better metabolic health.
Eden is a platform that connects individuals with licensed healthcare providers who can evaluate eligibility for treatments based on your personalized health assessment, including GLP-1 medications, which may support metabolic health goals. Eden is not a medical provider or pharmacy.
Metabolic health may be defined by optimal performance across five clinical markers:
When these markers remain within healthy ranges, they generally indicate efficient metabolic function and a reduced risk of chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CDC - Diabetes and Prediabetes). The below information is not medical advice - please consult your licensed healthcare provider for more in-depth information as pertaining to your health.
Elevated blood glucose may be a sign of insulin resistance, a primary contributor to poor metabolic health. Persistent high blood sugar increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and related complications.
High triglyceride levels may be linked to metabolic syndrome and may significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (Mayo Clinic - Metabolic Syndrome).
Low HDL cholesterol may impair the body's ability to remove excess cholesterol, contributing to the development of heart disease.
Hypertension may be associated with insulin resistance and excess weight, which may increase cardiovascular risks.
Excess abdominal fat may correlate with insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular dysfunction.
Metabolic syndrome may be diagnosed by a licensed healthcare provider when an individual exhibits at least three of the following risk factors:
This clustering may raise the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, emphasizing the importance of early discussions with a qualified healthcare provider.

Several lifestyle and genetic elements may influence metabolic outcomes.
A diet emphasizing whole foods, lean proteins, vegetables, and healthy fats may support metabolic function. Conversely, high consumption of processed foods and refined sugars may lead to insulin resistance.
Regular aerobic and strength exercises may help enhance insulin sensitivity and regulate energy metabolism (American Heart Association - Physical Activity Guidelines).
Although genetics can predispose individuals to metabolic challenges, lifestyle interventions continue to play a significant role in influencing health outcomes.
Poor sleep quality may disrupt metabolic regulation and is associated with increased insulin resistance (National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke - Sleep).
Chronic stress may elevate cortisol levels, promoting the accumulation of abdominal fat and insulin resistance (Mayo Clinic - Chronic Stress).
Optimizing metabolic health may offer benefits beyond weight management. Potential benefits include:
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:
