Reverse Insulin Resistance Naturally
Backed by Science
Discover Amanda Yue's proven system to support metabolic health, naturally and effectively.
What is Insulin Resistance?
Insulin resistance is a common metabolic condition where your body's cells don't respond effectively to insulin, the hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar. This forces your pancreas to work harder, often leading to elevated insulin levels.
Normal Function
Insulin acts like a key, unlocking cells to allow glucose (sugar) from your bloodstream to enter and be used for energy.
Resistance Develops
Over time, cells become less responsive to insulin's signal. Glucose struggles to enter, causing it to build up in the blood.
Pancreas Overdrive
To compensate, your pancreas produces more and more insulin. Eventually, it may struggle to keep up, leading to chronically high blood sugar levels.
Insulin Resistance:
The Hidden Root of Chronic Illness
Most people don’t realize that insulin resistance is at the core of nearly every major chronic condition we see today—from type 2 diabetes and heart disease to obesity, fatty liver, PCOS, Alzheimer’s, and more. The challenge is that insulin resistance develops silently over 10–15 years before a diagnosis is ever made. By the time blood sugar numbers finally show a problem, the body has already been struggling for years.
The good news? Insulin resistance is largely driven by lifestyle choices—and that means it’s something we can influence. Through nutrition, daily habits, and targeted support, we have the ability to not only prevent these conditions but also to reverse the progression before it becomes a life-altering diagnosis.
Taking control today is the key to protecting your health for years to come.

Unimate supports natural GLP-1 production
Our proven 3-step framework transforms your metabolic health through science-backed natural methods.
Potential Side Effects & Dependency on GLP-1 Medications
While GLP-1 agonists can aid weight loss, they often come with gastrointestinal side effects and don't address the underlying metabolic dysfunctions, potentially leading to long-term dependency without sustainable health improvements.
Masking Root Causes
GLP-1 medications primarily focus on appetite suppression and blood sugar regulation, rather than resolving the core issues of insulin resistance, such as diet, lifestyle, and gut health imbalances.
Want to read the GLP-1 Study?
In a recently published study with Unimate, scientists discovered that Unimate exerts tissue-specific effects in the fat, muscle, and liver. Interestingly, drinking Unimate resulted in greater energy consumption in the fat cells, while the muscle cells became more efficient at generating energy. Read more here.

The Power of Natural Compounds
How Our Ingredients Work to Support Healthy Blood Sugar and Insulin Balance
Unimate contains chlorogenic acid and theobromine from concentrated yerba maté. Chlorogenic acid helps slow sugar absorption and support fat metabolism, while theobromine provides smooth, lasting energy and focus without the crash.
Balance delivers both soluble and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber slows carbohydrate absorption to reduce glucose and insulin spikes, while insoluble fiber supports digestion, satiety, and regularity.
Together, they help regulate blood sugar, lower insulin resistance, and promote long-term metabolic health.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about the Feel Great System and how it can support your metabolic health journey.
What to Expect?
Increasing your fiber intake could result in a temporary increase of gas or bloating for some individuals. This is a common bodily response as you get used to higher amounts of daily fiber intake. The effects should diminish after 2–3 weeks. If you’re very uncomfortable, consider halving the portion of Balance you take before each meal for 3–7 days.
Diet & Eating Habits?
One of the best parts of this system is you can eat any food you like. Even though you can eat any food, for better results we suggest following these 5 crucial tips:
  1. Taking Balance® before lunch and dinner (your two largest meals of the day).
  1. Taking Unimate® in the morning.
  1. Get high quality proteins to meet your body’s anabolic needs.
  1. Try to avoid drinking your carbs. Instead, eat them. Sodas and fruit juices are mostly sugar and are not good for your body. If you really want to drink some fruit juice or soda what you can do is drink a balance to make up for the missing fiber, but as mentioned earlier this is not recommended.
  1. Use high quality fats and oil for cooking. 
Weight Loss?
Weight loss is not the primary goal of the Feel Great System — it is a bonus. If your main goal of starting the Feel Great System is weight loss, it is most effective when paired with intermittent fasting and diet change. Otherwise, it will be a slow process. You will start seeing results in time but it takes patience and consistency to see the results. If your goal is to lose weight, we recommend incorporating higher intakes of protein with each meal while using the system. That will enhance the benefits of the system and you may start noticing changes sooner. 
Tip: You will lose inches before the scale changes because body fat weighs very little. Focus on inches (your measurements), not the number on your scale.
Medication?
These products are made of food and the ingredients are available above in the hyperlinked PDFs for each product. However, consult with your health care professional before starting any dietary supplement program. The PDR is the most trusted source of information for health care practitioners. You can find more about Unimate and Balance at PDR website.
Duration of Use?
We recommend committing for at least 90–120 days. The Feel Great System is designed as a sustainable lifestyle, not a temporary diet, and many users continue for years due to its simplicity and powerful effects. Because using the Feel Great products is so simple and the Feel Great effects are so powerful, most people continue taking the products for many years. As the products are food, there is no dependency created, so you are free to stop using them whenever you choose. But you might not want to. 😉
Is Fasting Required?
No, fasting is not required, and the system is flexible. However, for optimal results in insulin and glucose control, as well as weight management, time-based eating is highly recommended.
