At baseline and at weeks 8 and 12, a clinician should assess fasting insulin and HOMA-IR (the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, a calculated index derived from fasting glucose and insulin), HbA1c, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein as an inflammatory marker, and body composition by DEXA scan or bioelectrical impedance
