Podcasts about metabolic health

This episode is the culmination of six years of podcasting, 300 episodes, nearly 300,000 downloads, two breast cancer diagnosis, and five years of coaching other breast cancer survivors.  I have learned A LOT on this journey, but I want to share the most important thing with you on this show.  If you're frustrated with your body, if you think you're doing all the right things and your body isn't cooperating, if you think you have to fight harder, do more, be more disciplined, this episode is for you.  I want to relieve you of the burden of carrying that heavy warrior shield and assure you that lightening that load and turning to the practice of compassion for your own body is the key to supporting your health and your ability to heal.  Take a deep breath, release the fight for the next 30 minutes and listen in.  Referred to in this episode:  Better Than Before Breast Cancer™ Life Coaching Membership  Year on the wall

I am delighted to have the privilege of reconnecting with Dr. Ben Bikman today. (He was with me previously on episodes 114 and 168.)  Dr. Bikman has a Ph.D. in Bio-energetics and also served as a postdoctoral fellow at the Duke-National University of Singapore, specializing in metabolic diseases. His current professional focus, as a scientist and Associate Professor at Brigham Young University, is on understanding the effects of elevated insulin, obesity regulation, diabetes management, the relevance of ketones, and the workings of mitochondrial function. He is also the author of a book I love and often recommend called Why We Get Sick.  In today's conversation, Dr. Bikman and I delve into a wide range of topics, including age-related changes in fat cells, gender-specific differences, the contrasting dynamics of hyperplasic and hypertrophic fat cells, and the impact of hormone replacement therapy and a metabolic buffer. We explore the changes in insulin sensitivity occurring during perimenopause and menopause and discuss the role of muscle, explaining how it can utilize either carbohydrates or fat for fuel. We also highlight the importance of strength training, discuss the impact of GLP-1 agonists- focusing specifically on Wegovy, and get into the effects of lifestyle factors like sleep and stress, the repercussions of endocrine-mimicking chemicals, and the significant impact of statin use with its associated diabetes risk. Lastly, we dive into the complex question of what poses more of a threat to our health- seed oils, high-fructose corn syrup, refined starches, or sugars?  IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: How our fat cells change with age  How lifestyle factors impact insulin sensitivity The hormonal changes that occur during perimenopause and menopause Why it makes sense for women to have more fat cells than men The importance of resistance training for building muscle Risks associated with relying on GLP-1 agonists for weight loss How immobility activates inflammatory pathways in muscles, leading to insulin resistance How stress and poor sleep impact insulin resistance Why is it essential to avoid high-carbohydrate or high-fat foods before bedtime? How alcohol, plastics, and pesticides impact insulin resistance and fat cell biology The potential risks of statin use How seed oils, refined starches, and refined sugars contribute to health problems Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on Twitter, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Connect with Dr. Ben Bikman On his website On social media: @benbikmanphd Previous Episodes Featuring Dr. Ben Bikman Ep. 114 – Why Obesity Matters When It Comes to Coronavirus – with Dr. Benjamin Bikman Ep. 168 – What To Do About Insulin Resistance Disorders (and the Role that Digestion Plays) with Dr. Benjamin Bikman

Confusion, overwhelm, and being “stuck” all have on thing in common…lack of self-trust.  It's so easy to get caught up in other people's ideas, opinions and judgments that you forget something vitally important….you are the expert on you.  You are the only one who knows what you want in your life, what feels good to your body, and what makes you happy.  Isn't it time to learn to trust yourself again?  In this episode we'll talk about some simple, seemingly innocent thoughts that derail your self-trust and how you can choose a different approach that supports your ability to be confident in creating the life you want to live after breast cancer.  Referred to in this episode:  Better Than Before Breast Cancer Life Coaching Membership

We hear the phrase, “metabolic health” a lot, but do we really know what that means? And, more importantly, how much do we understand the massive impact that metabolic health has on literally every system of our body?Today, we explore that line of thinking with Dr. Casey Means.Casey was trained as an ear, nose, and throat surgeon, but in recent years, she has become a self-proclaimed “Food as Medicine” evangelist. Why would she make such a drastic change in a successful budding career? Well, as you'll hear today, Dr. Means (like most doctors) pursued medicine in order to help people, but started realizing that most illnesses - even those she was treating as an ENT surgeon– came back to a person's level of inflammation and poor metabolic health. So, as a surgeon, she was playing the proverbial “whack-a-mole” with the problems but never identifying the root causation. Now, she's on a mission to create a healthier world through her company, LEVELS Health - a continuous glucose monitor company - along with her upcoming book, Good Energy.Today, we focus our conversation on exactly what metabolic health really means, as well as the Nine Elements of Metabolic Health. Casey also discusses the importance of metabolic health as it relates to exercise and sexual health.About Casey Means, MD Casey Means, MD is a Stanford-trained physician and Chief Medical Officer and Co-founder of metabolic health company Levels. Her mission is to maximize human potential and reverse the epidemic of preventable chronic disease by empowering individuals with tech-enabled tools that can inform smart, personalized, and sustainable dietary and lifestyle choices. Dr. Means's perspective has been recently featured in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, The New Yorker, Men's Health, Women's Health, and more.Episode ResourcesWatch the Episode on YouTubeEpisode WebpageUpcoming Events:Register for our November 15th "Home for Holidays" Masterclass with Rip and the Plantstrong Teamhttps://plantstrongfoods.com/pages/plantstrong-holidays Black Mountain Retreat - April 14th-19th, 2024https://plantstrongfoods.com/pages/2024-black-mountain-retreat Follow PLANTSTRONG and Rip EsselstynVisit PLANTSTRONG Foods and stock up on all of our latest products:https://plantstrongfoods.com/ PLANTSTRONG Facebook - tips, recipes, and the chance to see Rip live each weekhttps://www.facebook.com/GoPlantstrong PLANTSTRONG Instagram - tag us using #goplantstrong

There was a time, not so long ago, when food was a focus of daily life solely for survival.  People farmed, hunted, gardened, canned, and put a lot of effort into ensuring there would be enough food to keep them alive.  Now, there are so many food options that the choices are overwhelming, it's easy to overconsume and become overwhelmed.  Add in the fear factor that comes up after breast cancer and there's a whole new layer of confusion.  You worry about:  The right choice  The safe choice  What will heal you  What will help you lose weight  What will prevent inflammation  And that's how the diet industry gets you or leaves you overwhelmed, and you just give up.  In this show, I'll give you some insights on something that is more important than what food to choose, what diet to follow, or what new supplement to take…what you think about food and food choices you make.  Sound too simple? Check out this episode and see what you think.  Get support in the Better Than Before Breast Cancer Life Coaching Membership and the 8-Weeks of Reinventing Life After Breast Cancer Program Join Laura's 90 Days of Wellness journey into Deep Health for Breast Cancer Survivors Follow Laura on Facebook and Instagram 

 Today I finally get to nerd out on SALT with Darryl Bosshardt of Redmond's Real Salt since I use their salt in and on my foods daily plus trying to brine olives (first timers) in their real salt!   What is your interest in SALT!? "I love talking about salt because it is one thing that it so often overlooked and misunderstood, yet is one of the key elements for life. In terms of importance, salt is right at the top of the list behind oxygen and water - but is so often mistakenly demonized by those that just don't understand its essential role. And when it comes to any diet, keto, fasting, clean eating, cleansing, fermenting foods, etc - salt plays such an important factor."   Some of our Real Salt Questions: •       Is salt really bad for me? Should I try to eliminate sodium from my diet? •       I have heard that "sea salt" is better for me, is that true? •       What are differences in "sea salt" and other salts like the “pink”, “red” and “back” salts? •       What should I look for and what questions should I ask when trying to find a Natural Salt? •       What about "salt substitutes"? •       I know iodine is good for us, even essential, but what about Iodized Salt? Is Iodized salt a good source of Iodine? •       How is salt generally produced? How is Real Salt produced? •       How did "Real Salt" get started? •       If the right kind of salt is really good for me, how much should I try to get per day? •       Are there other products like “Real Salt” that Redmond has? •       What are some great salt resource books for those that would like to read a little about natural salts?

Sangeetha Aiyer, MHP, an accredited Metabolic Health Practitioner based in Mumbai, recently joined host Doug Reynolds on the LowCarbUSA® Podcast, sharing her inspiring journey and profound insights about metabolic health, sustainable fat loss, fitness and more.  In her 40s and a mother to a teenager, Sangeetha embodies the everyday struggles and triumphs of a working woman balancing family life. Her quest for health began with a common goal: weight loss. However, this objective soon evolved into a pursuit of optimal health and fitness, transcending the superficialities of mere physical appearance.  Her approach, 'Rewrite Your Story,' is a testament to her belief in the power of personal transformation through informed choices in diet and fitness. In the podcast, she discusses her personal health challenges, including battling PCOS and pre-diabetes. She candidly discusses the limitations of conventional advice and her transformative journey through the adoption of a low-carb, ketogenic lifestyle.   "I went from being pre-diabetic and overweight to reversing my PCOS and achieving my high school weight,” said Sangeetha. “It was not just about vanity but understanding that something deeper was happening with my health."  She explained to Doug that finding a path to good health required her to challenge much of what she had been taught about health and nutrition.  "The ketogenic lifestyle was a complete overturn of what mainstream advice had told me. Embracing animal protein and saturated fat was crucial in my journey towards health,” she said. She talked with Doug about the intricacies of tailoring nutrition plans for diverse dietary preferences, particularly focusing on Indian vegetarian diets. She emphasized the importance of restructuring the traditional food pyramid to suit individual needs. For pure vegetarians, she advocates a diet rich in dairy products, supplemented by whey protein, and a balanced intake of lentils, legumes, non-starchy vegetables, and low-carb fruits.  A significant challenge she addresses is catering to vegetarians who are also lactose intolerant. In such cases, she resorts to soy-based products like tofu and tempeh, despite her reservations about soy. She acknowledges the challenges in managing diets for individuals with specific health issues like gluten intolerance and advocates for personalized approaches based on one's tolerance and metabolic markers. Sangeetha stressed the importance of sharing transformative health stories and success cases, especially relating to Indian cuisine adapted to low-carb diets. "Sharing success stories and adaptations of Indian cuisine to low-carb diets is crucial. It's not about eliminating carbs but changing your plate proportion to prioritize protein and healthy options."  Her insights reflect a deep understanding of the complexities of dietary preferences and the importance of customizing nutrition plans. Her focus on education, adaptation, and gradual changes offers a realistic and inclusive approach to healthier eating habits. Connect with Sangeetha Aiyer: Twitter Instagram Website

Metabolic dysfunction is common in many communities and contributes to many of the most debilitating chronic diseases across the globe. The spectrum of metabolic function includes several points for intervention both before and after the diagnosis of conditions such as type 2 diabetes. The functional medicine approach to assessing and treating metabolic dysfunction involves a personalized approach to each patient, including understanding the root causes of each patient's issues and developing individualized treatment plans to address those specific causes. Researchers recently proposed a system for subtyping type 2 diabetes cases that may aid clinicians with pattern recognition and lead to therapeutic plans that are more tailored to each diabetes patient. On this episode of Pathways to Well-Being, we welcome Dr. Yousef Elyaman to discuss the functional medicine approach to metabolic health and how subtyping of diabetes might help clinicians identify and treat patients with metabolic dysfunction.

Phil got certified as a trainer at eighteen. His passion is to help people lose weight, gain muscle, and live longer. Phil is a firm believer in high repetitions. [02:40] How To Figure Out Which Workout Is Best For Your Body First, figure out what your goals are. If you want to be a bodybuilder, then you are going to need heavier weights. If you have injuries and don't want to hurt yourself, start with pushups and pullups. It's time to push past the limits of your body. [04:00] Are You New To Fitness? Phil Fit Explains How To Get Started Start by walking each and every day. If you can walk, then start with a mile. Do a mile each day for one month. You can also work on pushups, triceps dips, and crunches. Make sure that you wake up every day and celebrate your body. [05:50] How To Tell If You Are Exercising Too Much: Listen To Your Body Listen to your body. If you are totally exhausted and depleted, then it's time to take a break. When you exercise the right amount with the right intensity, you should feel more energized for the day. If you did too much for your body to adapt to, then you're going to feel exhausted for the rest of the day. [11:10] Resting Is Just As Important As The Exercise Itself In order to grow, you definitely need to get the proper rest. Sleep is important; power naps can be a useful tool on your fitness journey. If you didn't have the best sleep at night, then don't be afraid to take a nap. Your body is tearing down muscle in the gym, and then you're building it up when you're resting and repairing. [13:30] Phil Works With Professionals and Celebrities – They All Have This In Common The people Phil works with all have work ethic. Phil will take people to a level that they never thought they could go to. Professionals want to be challenged, and Phil always makes sure to bring the best out of the people he trains. The best coaches at the gym are the ones that have energy and enthusiasm. [16:20] Why People Are Failing When It Comes To Their Exercise Routines   Phil says that he's not for everyone. If you can't handle high-intensity training, Phil may not be the right fit for you. If you want to get those fitness results, you need to be serious about it. A lot of people want to talk to their trainer at the gym, Phil is willing to be that therapist for them. [21:45] Phil Gives His Thoughts On The Status of Metabolic Health in America Phil says we need to get rid of fast food. There are more people in line at McDonald's vs. a healthier choice. Phil wants to help people who are obese. They don't know what to do when it comes to eating and working out. If you have a weight problem, reach out to someone that can help you. [25:05] Are You Overweight? It's Time To Trade Your Doctor For A Trainer You don't need more medicines. Instead, you need to get your body moving. Celebrate each step that you take. If you can't walk a mile, then give yourself ten steps each day. The next day, add another step. Never stop moving your body. If you don't know what to eat, find someone who is knowledgeable about food.

There's no one way to feed every human body but there are ways to support your body in using different foods efficiently. This is referred to as metabolic flexibility and it's an important concept when it comes to support the terrain of your body.  When you're metabolically flexible, you can worry less about eating more carbs now and then because your overall lifestyle helps your body to smoothly transition from occasional indulgences back to your preferred way of eating.  More importantly, metabolic flexibility can reduce the risk of many lifestyle diseases and support healthy aging and longevity.  Listen to this episode and learn more about what metabolic flexibility is, why it's important for your health and how you can improve it starting today.  Referred to in this episode:  Metabolic flexibility in health and disease  Get support in the Better Than Before Breast Cancer Life Coaching Membership  Follow Laura on Facebook and Instagram

When it comes to life and breast cancer, it's not uncommon for me to hear women say that they lost a chunk of their life to it or that breast cancer robbed them and they're right.  Anytime we tell ourselves a story like that, we'll find a way to prove we're right.  In this episode, I'll offer you another view, one that allows you to feel all the things that come up and still choose to lean into life regardless of the circumstances.  One of the biggest mistakes I see is women having the belief that everything should feel good and comfortable for it to be right.  I've found exactly the opposite.  The things that we're the most uncomfortable are the things that have brought the biggest rewards to my life.  But you need to have the right tools to support you in creating the life you want while you feel uncomfortable emotions.  Listen now and hear the exact steps to do that.  Referred to in this episode:  Better Than Before Breast Cancer Life Coaching Membership

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this “Ask Me Anything” (AMA) episode, Peter explores various pharmacologic tools commonly utilized to improve metabolic health and treat diabetes, including SGLT-2 inhibitors, metformin, and GLP-1 agonists. He examines the available data on these drugs, assessing their comparative effectiveness and their potential in the context of lifestyle interventions. Additionally, he offers insights into whether SGLT2 inhibitors hold promise as geroprotective agents beyond their effects on glycemic control. Next, Peter analyzes the relationship between statin usage and the risk of developing insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, investigating possible causal pathways and providing insights into strategies for risk reduction. He offers insights on monitoring adverse statin effects and evaluating the need for adjustments, ultimately weighing the trade-off between the risk to overall metabolic health against the benefits of reducing apoB levels through statin use.

Have you ever noticed how you talk yourself into staying uncomfortable?  It happens when you know something in life doesn't feel right. Maybe it's served it's purpose, or maybe you've changed and you need something different or you want to express your need or dream for the first time ever.  Then you tell yourself things aren't so bad.   You tell yourself you “should” be happy.  You “should” be grateful.  And in doing that you avoid looking at what is actually happening, and you create low level, long term discomfort.  That's the kind of thing that makes us sick.  In this episode, I'll talk about why we do that to ourselves and how to stop it.  There's a simple beauty in accepting life as it is now and giving yourself permission to stay in it and embrace the truth.  Check out this episode and learn to okay with what is so you can make it even better.   Referred to in this episode: The Better Than Before Breast Cancer Life Coaching Membership

[14:00] What's the Importance of Protein to Aging and Metabolic Health? ●      Protein is a critical macronutrient, especially as we age, as it helps stimulate muscle protein synthesis and maintain lean muscle tissue. ●      Contrary to previous beliefs, older individuals need more protein to combat muscle loss and support insulin sensitivity. ●      The minimum recommended protein intake per meal is 30 grams for most people, with some individuals requiring more based on their needs. ●      Properly understanding portion sizes and macronutrient combinations is essential for optimizing protein intake. ●      Inadequate protein consumption may contribute to the metabolic health crisis, emphasizing the importance of including enough protein in one's diet as they age. [18:06] Change Your Perspective and Support Your Overall Health! ●      Cancer is a multifactorial disease influenced by various factors, including diet, lifestyle, environmental exposures, and even emotional health. ●      Fixating on a single aspect, such as excess protein intake and mTOR activation, oversimplifies the complex nature of cancer development. ●      Chronic and habitual one-meal-a-day (OMAD) fasting can lead to metabolic distress, muscle loss, and hinder metabolic health. ●      Individuals must shift away from restrictive dieting and nourish their bodies with adequate nutrition to support overall health. ●      Society's disordered relationship with food, body image, and weight contributes to unhealthy dietary and lifestyle practices and the rise of unhealthy diet culture. [29:35] Here's What You Need To Know About Animal and Plant-Based Protein ●      The amino acid composition of animal-based protein is superior to that of plant-based protein. ●      When choosing plant-based protein, it's essential to be cautious about consuming excessive carbohydrates to meet protein intake goals. ●      Metabolic health and insulin sensitivity are significant in determining the ability to handle plant-based protein, particularly for those in perimenopause and menopause. ●      The Protein Leverage Hypothesis highlights the importance of adequate protein intake for satiety and blood sugar regulation. ●      Starting the day with a higher protein meal can lead to greater satiety and reduced cravings throughout the day, promoting healthier eating habits. [35:25] How Do You Get More Protein while Intermittent Fasting? Check this out! ●      Adjust your fasting and feeding windows to make it more manageable to consume an adequate amount of protein. ●      Slowly increase protein intake to reach your target, especially if you are metabolically healthy. ●      Use tracking apps like Chronometer to get a clear picture of your daily protein intake. ●      Consider incorporating a high-quality protein shake or amino acids if you struggle to meet your protein goals through whole foods. ●      Bio-individuality plays a significant role in choosing protein sources and added ingredients, so find what works best for your digestion and preferences. [46:14] Fasting for Menopausal Women and Its Benefits and Considerations ●      Focus on managing stress and improving sleep before diving into fasting for postmenopausal women. ●      Fasting should be considered one of many strategies and should not be added without addressing foundational issues like sleep and stress. ●      Individualize fasting strategies for postmenopausal women and use them as a beneficial stressor rather than overloading the body. ●      Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a valid option for menopausal women but should be approached with informed decision-making and working with healthcare providers. ●      Understand the hormonal changes in the body during menopause and their influence on fasting and health, including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. [56:08] Strategic Application of Stressors: Hormesis and Fasting ●      Utilize hormetic stressors like fasting, exercise, and cold exposure to promote resilience and strength. ●      Be strategic with stressors by understanding genetic susceptibility and personal tolerances. ●      For some, long fasting, categorized as more than 24 hours, may not be suitable, especially for lean middle-aged individuals, due to concerns about muscle loss. ●      Consider gender-specific and age-specific factors when determining the best fasting regimens. ●      Monitor health markers, including muscle mass and immune system function, to make informed decisions about fasting strategies. [1:02:00] Achieving Autophagy and Hormetic Stress ●      While eating breakfast can be challenging for some, the goal is to consume most of your daily calories earlier, optimizing cortisol levels and insulin sensitivity. ●      The timing of meals affects the body's balance of hormones like ghrelin and leptin. ●      Blue light exposure, especially at night, can disrupt hormonal rhythms and affect hunger hormones. ●      Scientific studies may vary in their findings regarding hormone levels, but real-world results and individual experiences should guide your eating schedule. ●      Monitoring your feelings, energy levels, weight loss, mood, and sleep quality is crucial in determining the right breakfast timing. [1:09:00] What effects on your health do environmental toxins have? Reduce Your Risk! ●      HRV (Heart Rate Variability) varies significantly from person to person due to genetic and individual factors, making it crucial to establish a personal baseline and progress over time. ●      Comparing your HRV to others can lead to frustration and unrealistic expectations, as it's heavily influenced by age, genetics, and other factors. ●      Environmental factors, such as mold exposure and EMF radiation, can profoundly affect health, leading to symptoms like poor sleep, weight gain, and inflammation. ●      Sensitivity to environmental stressors differs among individuals, making some more like "canaries in the coal mine" who react strongly to these exposures. ●      Identifying and addressing environmental contributors to health issues is vital to a holistic approach to well-being.   AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode: ●      Website: https://cynthiathurlow.com/ ●      Intermittent Fasting Transformation: https://cynthiathurlow.com/book/ ●      Follow Cynthia ○      Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CHTWellness/ ○      YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/cynthiathurlow ○      TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cynthia_thurlow_ ○      Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cynthia_thurlow_/ ●      Join the Keto Kamp Academy: https://ketokampacademy.com/7-day-trial-a ●      Watch Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  Wild Pastures: $20 OFF per Box for Life + Free Shipping for Life + $15 OFF your 1st Box! https://wildpastures.com/promos/save-20-for-life-lf?oid=6&affid=132&source_id=podcast&sub1=ad BonCharge: Blue light Blocking Glasses, Red Light Therapy, Sauna Blankets & More.

If I could delete a belief that limits change and happiness in people's lives I think it would be all or nothing.  When we think we have to do it all, we often end up doing nothing, because it isn't possible to do it all, especially all at once.  In this episode I‘ll share some insights on the results I have witnessed from all or none thinking and how both thoughts usually land us in the same place.  More importantly, I'll offer you the one belief that will not only set you free from the vicious cycle of all or none thinking, but it will give you the support you need to transform your life.  Referred to in this episode:  Better Than Before Breast Cancer Life Coaching Membership 

About The Guest(s):Carly Hayes is a registered dietitian nutritionist and the lead dietitian at Nutrisense, a metabolic health company that uses continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology to provide real-time data to clients. She specializes in bariatric nutrition therapy and has helped the company grow from two dietitians to a team of over 20 within the first year.Summary:Carly Hayes discusses the importance of metabolic health and how it is connected to longevity and overall well-being. Metabolic health refers to how our metabolism processes energy and uses the food we eat to fuel our bodies. Less than 7% of Americans are metabolically healthy, indicating a widespread issue with the efficiency of our metabolism. Monitoring blood sugar, or glucose, is a key aspect of metabolic health, as it provides valuable information about how our bodies are processing food. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology allows individuals to track their blood sugar levels in real-time and make informed decisions about their diet and lifestyle to optimize metabolic health. Carly explains how CGM can be used to identify patterns and trends in blood sugar response to different foods and activities, and how this information can be used to make meaningful changes to improve metabolic health.Key Takeaways:Metabolic health is crucial for longevity and overall well-being.Less than 7% of Americans are metabolically healthy.Glucose monitoring provides valuable information about how our bodies process food.Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology allows real-time tracking of blood sugar levels.CGM can help identify patterns and trends in blood sugar response to different foods and activities.Personalized nutrition and lifestyle changes can optimize metabolic health.Quotes:"Less than 7% of Americans are metabolically healthy.""Glucose is the main metric that involves metabolic health.""Glucose monitoring provides real-time data on how your body responds to different foods and activities.""CGM allows you to see how your decisions impact your metabolism and blood sugar levels.""Metabolic health is the key to living a healthy lifespan and achieving optimal health."See this video on The Transform Your Mind YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@MyhelpsUs/videosTo see a transcripts of this audio as well as links to all the advertisers on the show page https://blog.myhelps.us/Follow Transform Your Mind on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/myrnamyoung/Follow Transform Your mind on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063738390977Please leave a rating and review on iTunes https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/transform-your-mind/id1144973094
