Optimal Metabolic Health is characterised by the efficient regulation of blood sugar levels, insulin sensitivity, lipid (fat) metabolism, and overall energy balance. It involves maintaining appropriate levels of key markers such as blood glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, and insulin.
When someone has good metabolic health, their body can effectively convert food into energy, regulate appetite and weight, support organ function, and maintain stable levels of blood sugar and other metabolic parameters. You will have a sense of vitality, energy, and overall well-being!
Poor metabolic health, on the other hand, means energy production becomes inefficient, leaving you feeling tired and drained. You may struggle with cravings, weight gain, brain fog and hormonal havoc. It can lead to insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Poor metabolic health also increases your risk of mental health conditions, cancer, and neurodegenerative disease, it compromises immune function, increases inflammation, and disrupts hormonal balance.
Fortunately, it is entirely possible to prevent and manage poor metabolic health through what you eat and how you live. Nurturing your metabolic health through correct nourishment, movement, stress management and lifestyle is key to living your upmost vibrant, healthy, and fulfilling life - and is the most powerful thing you can do to turn your health around and safeguard your future!
